A committed Christian who followed a call to Baptist ministry, Gary’s life took a dramatic and unexpected turn when he was invited to help develop a network of Cowboy Churches in Texas.
He flourished in this role, and it grew rapidly. However, the chaos of COVID, combined with partisan political infighting in his congregations, led him to seek an anchor in a theological tradition that could transcend the spirit of the age.
This led him to discover the history and authority of the Catholic Church, and he knew that he had to come home.

**...partisan political infighting in his congregations,..**
As if there is none of that in the RCC.
He left a lame horse and saddled up one with pink eye.
Hebrews 6:4-64 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
Grave warning to a person like him. Now run along and put this sereies in the Catholic Caucus and nobody will bother you.
That the real Church was the Roman Catholic Church was never mentioned in the Bible at all. Could not have happened. The Romans were throwing the Christians in jail and to the Lion’s. How foolish to think that the Romans were Christians, expect for the ones hiding from the Romans government. They never had mass or anything like that. They read the old testament and sang songs, believes who actually seen Jesus die on the cross and rise from the dead, and that followed Jesus shared their eye witness testimony.
The Bible instructs believers to expose the deeds of darkness primarily in Ephesians 5:11, which states: “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them” (NIV). This verse is often interpreted as a call to stand for truth, bring hidden sins to light through holy living, and avoid participating in sinful acts.
It’s a sin to add or subtract from word of God.
“authority of the Catholic Church”
authority of Word of God and Jesus Christ.
Worshipping a church is a cult.
Read the Bible and worship Jesus.
Great post, it’s so sad that they just don’t read the Bible and follow Jesus. Forget worshipping a church.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through Me. JOHN 14:6
NOT THOUGH ANY CHURCH
"Church" is mentioned in 103 verses of the New Testament.
The one started by the one guy Christ turned to and called “Satan?”
That really is dumb.

Roman Catholic refers to to the Latin rite. It was used as a slur by the Anglicans.
Catholic is the proper term.
And the Bible is not a word search. That’s Protestant tradition and in not biblical.
Using OUR book.
The same guy was named Peter, the Rock, on whom His Church was founded.
