Imagine finding your faith completely shaken by the early Church fathers and discovering solace in the ancient Mass and the role of Mary in your life. That's precisely what our guest, Nick, experienced as he journeyed towards the Catholic Church. In this captivating conversation, we explore both Nick's and my co-host Jason's faith journeys and their struggles with authority and conversion.

We dive deep into topics like the real presence of the Eucharist, the Churches of Christ's alignment with Catholic teachings, and the changes within the Church under Pope Francis. We also touch on the power of organizing protests against perverse events and satanic activities, the implications of freedom of speech, and the importance of local elections and political realism. This episode is filled with heartfelt stories, insightful discussions, and powerful testimonies that will inspire and challenge you in your faith journey.

Join us as we share our unique perspectives on Catholicism, conversion, and the role of Mary in our lives. You'll be moved by Nick's story of turning to Mary for guidance, Jason's struggle with authority, and how our faith journeys led us to embrace the teachings of the Catholic Church. Don't miss out on this enlightening conversation – it's an episode you won't want to miss.

********************************************************

Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and charity.

Avoiding Babylon does not criticize the hierarchy or institutional Church, especially Pope Francis. We recognize there is an unprecedented crisis in the Church, but we feel that there are other shows that address these issues that are more qualified than us. Instead, we try to remind ourselves and those who enjoy the channel that being Catholic is a joyful and exciting experience. We seek true Catholic fraternity and eutrapelia with other Catholics who, like us, are doing their best to live out their vocation with the help of God’s Grace. Above all, we try to bring humor and joy to the craziness of this fallen world, for as Hillaire Belloc has famously said:

“Wherever the Catholic sun doth shine,
There’s always laughter and good red wine.
At least I’ve always found it so.
Benedicamus Domino!”
