292: The Conversion of an Anti-Catholic Crusader (w/ Sophia Nikolai)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Sophia Nikolai, a self-described anti-Catholic who is here to share her absolutely incredible conversion story with us. With an anti-Catholic, Evangelical background, Sophia considered herself firmly grounded in her Christian faith until an encounter with a quotation from the Early Church Fathers and some pretty miraculous interventions began her on a journey completely and utterly out of her comfort zone. Listen to Sophia's amazing journey which includes burning rosaries, ripping up prayer books, and trying to convince her Catholic husband (and his family) that they were all doomed – before, ultimately, becoming Catholic herself! It's an amazing story!For more from Sophia, check out her brand new YouTube channel and please subscribe while you're there!Send your feedback to [email protected].
