In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Barbara Heil a former Charismatic, Evangelical Ministry, Missionary, and Evangelist who heard the call of God – encountered Christ in a profound way – and became Catholic! This is an incredible story, buckle up!

Barbara spent 30 years in what she called cutting-edge Evangelical ministry, always seeking to live on the margins of where God was calling her, her husband, and their thriving ministry, until she began to encounter Christ in the most unexpected places: through Catholic priest, the Mass, and in Catholic encounters!

Barbara's story is one of those incredible journeys of someone who is seriously "sold out" for the Lord, encountering him in the least likely of places: the Catholic Church. 

For more from Barbara check out From His Heart Ministries and her book Journey Into His Heart: How the Holy Spirit Led Me Into the Catholic Church. You will not be disappointed!
