Interview with Rebecca (A Catholic Revert)
This is our interview with Rebecca, who is a Catholic revert. She shares with us her years away from the Church searching for answers in different beliefs such as New Age Spiritualism.
(0:00 - 0:45)
Introducing Rebecca.
(0:45 - 02:10)
Rebecca shares the beginnings of this apostolate and why it is important during this time. She also shares why reason does not oppose faith.
(02:11 - 05:43)
Rebecca delves into her younger days where she shares her past struggles with the Catholic faith and her sins. Although her family consists mainly of practicing Catholics, she highlighted that faith is not naturally hereditary and coming from a good family does not always equate to being a good person.
(05:44 - 14:46)
Rebecca details her misguided search for truth, which resulted in subscribing to beliefs from Veganism, Buddhism, New Age Spiritualism and Scientism, with almost renunciation of her Catholic faith to adopt Buddhism as her religion. She also reflects on how she found out that they are not the answer, which propelled her journey back to the Catholic faith.
On her journey back, she attended Protestant services but was not attracted to Protestantism as it lacks the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist and does not hold the fullness of Truth. The Catholic Church having the Body of Christ (the Eucharist) is the strongest factor to her reversion.
She also shares the interesting insight on how religion should be the centre of all knowledge learnt in university (referenced from Bishop Barron's Catholicism series)
(14:47 - 17:27)
Rebecca shares how Catholicism has helped her in her life: the Sacraments, and the many channels of graces. She also shares the benefits of knowing virtues and knowing your temperament and the consolation that there is the hope of eternal rest after death
(17:28 - 18:50)
Saints who inspire Rebecca - St. Louis Marie de Montfort, St. Alphonsus Liguori, St. Augustine of Hippo
(18:51 - 21:13)
Rebecca shares on how one can preserve one’s faith: staying true to devotion to Our Lady
(21:14 - 23:05)
Rebecca’s advice for lapsed Catholics
(23:05 - 25:16)
Rebecca’s thanksgiving and final reflections
(25:17 - 27:22)
Outro and ending prayer - Alma Redemptoris Mater
