  I fought Catholicism for 56 years, once God gave me the grace to understand it (and He had to be persistent), I somehow knew I was going to be Catholic a year before I made the decision, trying to fight it the whole time. 4 years ago this Easter, I came into the Church and have NEVER been more fulfilled. Thank you Jesus!

  I always said that if I ever converted, I would be anything except Catholic. God replied with &quot;hold my beer&quot;. I went to college and came out with no ability to deny the truth of the Catholic Church. I hated that it was true, but had to accept it and now have been Catholic for over a decade and am raising 3 Catholic sons.

  The humility of Cameron and his openness to Catholicism is quite rare and &nbsp;wonderful. God bless you all for this conversation.

  My wife was methodist for 38 years. 4 years ago she came into the catholic church, after the holy spirit spoke to her. She fought it for 6 yrs, but started researching it, and then started having dreams of Jesus asking her why she was denying his Church. She finally came into the church, and brought me back after I was away from the &nbsp;church 25 plus years. My life has been blessed more than I could have imagined, and I&apos;m the happiest I&apos;ve ever been. &nbsp; I now do God&apos;s work!

  My mom converted from an Anabaptist Mennonite background after reading Rome Sweet Home. She only decided to read it after she got it a second time in the same week from two different people. I converted two years later, after spending a lot of time on Catholic Answers. This will be my eighteenth Easter in the Church. Never heard about the proper tense of Matthew 18:18. I had always puzzled on that phrasing and it makes much more sense to me now.

  This one sealed it for me. I had lingering doubts. Dr Hahn just revealed the Papacy to me on a whole new level.

  What a Conversation. &nbsp;Scott Hahn is running a ferry service across the Tiber.

  So glad we’ve got great catholic content in YouTube so I don’t fill my brain with trash …

  I feel a lot of love for Cameron. His humility and the way he’s searching for truth are very winning.

  As a son, grandson, nephew and cousin of well meaning and faithful Baptist Pastors I was raised in a mostly &nbsp;anti-catholic environment, although my family respected the Christian faith of many Catholics. When I decided to study Catholic teaching I realized that it is deeper, stronger and more beautiful than I thought. I feel Catholic now.

  It is interesting which &quot;sticking points&quot; are the &quot;if it is true, then Catholicism is true and I must be Catholic.&quot; &nbsp;I was approaching Catholicism from an historical point of view, that is, which church is closest to the Church Christ established. &nbsp;But, when my mother, who is an ex-Catholic, confronted me, her sticking point was the Eucharist. &nbsp;She said, &quot; if the Eucharist is really Jesus, then I must be Catholic, but it can&apos;t be because (insert typical protestant anti-real-presence rhetoric). &nbsp;At that point, the Eucharist became my sticking point, because I had already established that Catholicism fits the historic narrative, at least better than any Protestant church. &nbsp;Well, I had a vision (not a dream in my sleep, but a vision while awake in prayer) that confirmed the Real Presence, as well as Dr. Hahn&apos;s excellent proofs and arguments. I never really found the papacy to be a sticking point. &nbsp;As soon as I heard about Peter meaning Rock, I believed. &nbsp;It wasn&apos;t an issue. &nbsp;But, I appreciate the variety of sticking points because it keeps the Truth alive and flowing as we work on our walk Home to Rome. &nbsp;Pray for me. &nbsp;I am not yet fully Home and my family is very much against Catholicism. But, I&apos;m on my way!
