It’s a raw, personal look at the actual questions I wrestled with, what the Catechism really teaches, and how I realized Christ is at the very center of Catholic doctrine.

Just a short video today announcing the CGCD Manual. I will be starting a new series called the Convert's Guide to Catholic Doctrine. As a bit of a Revert/Convert, I had to unlearn, relearn and push through falsehoods made about Catholicism and Catholic doctrine. It is my goal to create a manual for use in OCIA or for anyone converting to Catholicism.

In this episode, I share my personal journey transitioning from 15 years in Protestantism—where I was taught communion was merely a symbolic toast—to fully embracing the Catholic doctrine of the true presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist. 

I dive into the scriptural evidence of the Real Presence, from Jesus's "Bread of Life" discourse in John 6 to His clear declarations at the Last Supper. I also explore how early Church Fathers, like St. Ignatius of Antioch in 110 AD, firmly defended that the Eucharist is the literal flesh of Christ. Join me to discover why Holy Communion isn't just a human act of remembrance, but a profound work of God that imparts grace and the forgiveness of sins.

In this episode, I discuss the Gospel reading for Friday, the 11th week of Ordinary time. Matthew 6:19-23

"Where your treasure is, there also will your heart be."

The heart is the center and everything in your life orbits around it. Is your center you? Or is your center Jesus?

In this weeks episode, I explain the “Key” to understanding Matthew 16 and the institution of the Papacy is not solely focused on the linguistics of the words used for Rock. The key is found in Isaiah 22.

It this weeks episode we discuss the Catholic Doctrine of Baptism. Going a little deeper than perhaps what you learned in OCIA, we dig into the scriptural defense for baptismal regeneration, infant baptism and what the successors of the Apostles and early church practiced. 

In this episode, I'm tackling one of the most agonizing questions we face: "What is God's will for my life?"

So often, we stand at a crossroads paralyzed by fear, treating God's will like a divine scavenger hunt where picking the wrong door will ruin the blueprint for our entire existence.

But I'm here to share that we might be asking the wrong question.

Knowing God's will isn't primarily about the specific job you take, the city you live in, or who you marry; it is entirely about your state of life.

In this video, I break down The 3 Paths to Knowing God's Will.

In this weeks episode I express my thoughts on the Traditional Latin Mass following recent ecclesiastical restrictions. Although I do not identify as a strict traditionalist, I deeply value the spiritual beauty and history associated with pre-Vatican II liturgy. I highlight my experiences at St. Ann’s in Charlotte, and how the community previously enjoyed a peaceful coexistence between different liturgical styles. The current lack of accessibility to these traditions, which has forced many devoted families to travel long distances to worship are difficult. We are one holy, Catholic and Apostolic church and it is my prayer that the traditional expressions of faith can once again flourish together without restrictions.
