297: The Protestant Pastor Who Fell in Love with the Catholic Church (w/ Brian Jacobson)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Brian Jacobson, a former Protestant pastor and a convert to the Catholic faith, to unpack his incredible story and the reasons why he absolutely fell in love with the Catholic faith. From the initial realization – at an ecumenical Bible study – that him and his fellow Protestants couldn't agree on the "essentials" of the faith, Brian's journey into looking for the source and authority of Scriptural interpretation takes a number of wild twists and turns before arriving in the arms of the ancient Catholic faith. It's an amazing story and Brian is not only a passionate storyteller but a good one, at that! You can tell he spent years preaching. I truly hope you love this episode!Send your feedback to [email protected].
