26:28 The process of joining the Church
30:19 "What graces have you experienced as a Catholic?"
35:14 The Catholic Understanding of Suffering
37:31 Becoming comfortable with Mary as an Intercessor
40:39 "Why should someone explore Catholicism?"
Michael grew up going to a Presbyterian mega-church in LA. After going off to college, he found himself going to church for the sake of going to church. One day he woke up and realized the Holy Spirit was calling him to go deeper in his faith. He began exploring different Christian denominations, and was leaning towards Methodism when a Catholic friend invited him to adoration...
A huge thanks to Michael for sharing his story with me!

I just wanted to say Megan that I love how you interview your guests. That you ask short and direct questions and then stayed out of the way and let them talk. And all your questions are relevent to their conversion stories. I like that. A lot of these YTers interrupt their guests, or go on long winded small talks that are irrelevant and uniteresting but yours are always on target. Good job!!

Thank you both for your kind comments! In my very first interview, I went for more of a conversational approach, but I quickly realized that my contributions to the conversation weren’t really adding much value, and on the contrary, they were breaking up the cohesion of my guest’s story. I had also watched a few instructional videos by a well-known journalist when I was considering the idea of starting this channel, and her advice has been emblazoned in my mind ever since: When you’re interviewing someone, it’s THEIR story, not yours. I think some other RU-vidrs go for a more conversational approach rather than a traditional interview format, and that’s of course just fine for them if that’s what they enjoy and what appeals to their audiences. For me, keeping my thoughts to a minimum allows my guest’s story to shine. In my day to day life, I am a habitual interrupter, but I’ve been trying hard to break the habit in the last 5 years since getting married. 😅 This channel has been a blessing in the obvious way of hearing and sharing these stories, but it’s also been so helpful in learning how to be a better listener and communicator. I appreciate you both for picking up on my efforts to do the best job I can as an interviewer! I still have a lot to learn.

Child abuse is far far worse in Protestantism than in Catholicism. That was spoken of by a Protestant lady Preacher who said she cudn't understand why we only heard abt the Catholic abuses but not abt Protestant abuses which were far far worse. Archbishop Fulton Sheen liked to listen to her but sadly I didn't note her name.

In the book JESUS IS FOR REAL. Todd, a Baptist's son, was asked if he had seen Mary. He replied that he had. That she stands by her son "just like a regular mom". He was a child when he died on the operating table and spiritually was taken to Heaven. A beautiful story.

Find a Church that offers the "Traditional Latin Mass". As far as you both have come, there is much more.

So how do you convert from Christian to Christian?
@FiledUnderFaith
@FiledUnderFaith Год назад
Good question! To convert literally means to "change" or "transform". Someone who goes from Presbyterian to Catholic is indeed converting or changing from one to the other, but they are in no way converting from or to the Christian faith.

Its like saying last name a d convert to first name , Christian is like first name he convert his last name or the other way around, whatever, so saying convert Christian to Christian that keep the same

You should not idol a book it is not worshiping our Lord ,the Mass (last Supper ) receiving the Body and Blood of our Lord through the Eucharist which the Bishop hands down the blessing to a Priest ,and goes back in the first century St.Ignatius of Antioch 50-107 AD. St.Ignatius and St. Polycarp were taught by St. John the Apostle who was 97 years old AD.
