In this personal episode of The SavvyCast, Jamie opens up about her and her husband Zane's spiritual journeys. After decades of shared faith in the Church of Christ and later at an evangelical nondenominational church, Zane made the decision to convert to Catholicism. Jamie shares her honest thoughts, how they've navigated this change in their marriage, and the resources that have helped her better understand Catholicism as a lifelong Protestant. This episode offers insight for anyone navigating faith differences within a marriage or close relationship.
