YouTube channel, to discuss his incredibly intense and interesting journey back to the Catholic Church as a “revert” to the faith. Eddie’s story is a wild one with many ups and downs and a journey which led him, a baptized Catholic, into non-denominational Protestant Christianity where he and his wife – a former Seventh Day Adventist – found a spiritual home. But mixed... Read more

Last updated on: December 24, 2022 at 1:18 pm By K. Albert Little

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I’m joined by author, filmmaker, and Catholic convert Don Johnson to talk about his experience with Sola Scriptura – “Bible alone” Christianity – and how, he finds, it’s not only utterly broken but utterly breaking the larger Christian church, the witness of Christianity, and the ability of Christians to stand up for Christian beliefs with a united front. Drawing on examples from slavery, the sexual revolution, and more, Don lays out a concrete... Read more

Last updated on: October 25, 2022 at 8:11 pm By K. Albert Little

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I’m joined by YouTube sensation Mike Wilson from The Popish Plot to tell the incredible story of how an encounter with a well-meaning Evangelical Christian – and his pastor – led Mike to look deeper into his own Catholic faith, to double down on the ancient creeds, and to become serious about following the practice of his Catholic faith.

Last updated on: October 25, 2022 at 8:08 pm By K. Albert Little

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I’m joined by Dr. Abigail Favale, one of the foremost Catholic thinkers on the topics of gender and sexuality, to give us the straight goods on what the Catholic Church believes about gender. We’ve tried our best to strip away ideology, prejudice, and commentary and dig into what we mean by gender, how it’s understood by others, and what the Catholic Church presents for us to believe, and follow, as practising Catholic Christians....

We talk about the Old Testament studies, the Early Church, questioning authority, Mary, the Magisterium, and how an incredibly devout, reasonable, Bible-loving, Christ-centred Christian would ever think about becoming Catholic.

Last updated on: October 25, 2022 at 8:03 pm By K. Albert Little

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I’m joined by my good friend Keith Nester, a former Protestant pastor, to unpack the rosary. What exactly do we do when we’re praying the rosary? How do we pray it more fruitfully and more authentically? How can we avoid the trap of “vain repetition” that Protestants often accuse Catholics of. And more. Keith explains how the rosary is a Bible study, a sermon series, and a recounting of the life of Christ... Read more
