301: Making the Case for Converting to Catholicism (w/ Dr. Peter Kreeft)

from The Cordial Catholic · host Keith Little, Peter Kreeft

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Peter Kreeft, philosopher, theologian, and one of the most important modern converts to the Catholic faith to unpack his own conversion journey and discuss why it makes good logical, philosophical, biblical, and historical sense to become Catholic. We talk about his journey from Calvinism to Catholicism, the centrality and logical sense of the Eucharist, the Reformation, and much, much more. Including, of course, his objections to Catholicism. This is one of those "Bucket List" conversations for me as someone who encountered Dr. Kreeft early on in my conversion journey and read just about everything he ever wrote. What an amazing conversation. For more from Dr. Kreeft check out his website. His new book, From Calvinist to Catholic, is simply wonderful too.Send your feedback to [email protected].
