Another important experience at seminary was reading John Henry Newman’s Apologia Pro Vita Sua, his story of how he converted from Anglicanism to Catholicism by searching for the "Catholic tradition" in the Church of England.

This constant parade of “former” Protestants is becoming tiresome. It is little wonder the Protestant church struggles in so many places with the poor understanding of Protestant theology and doctrine. It amazes me at how poorly taught these people are. And how willing they are to walk away from a faith that is incomplete in their experience. There is not a one of these stories where there is a proper understanding of Biblical teaching.

** Newman, however, described a church that commanded assent, whose beliefs and visible form were both grounded in the teaching of the apostles. I longed for such a church,**

Bingo!

I hope this fellow continues to find a close relationship with the Lord in the Catholic Church. I have found wonderful Christian fellowship, spiritual growth and good biblical teaching in the Mennonite Brethern Church.

Jesus said, wherever two or three are gathered in His name, He is there. Hallelujah!
