341: From Adventures in Odyssey to the Catholic Church (w/ Paul McCusker)

from The Cordial Catholic · host Keith Little, Paul McCusker

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Paul McCusker, the Peabody Award-winning creator of Adventures in Odyssey and the Focus on the Family Radio Theatre to discuss his incredible conversion to Catholicism. McCusker's worked defined generations of Evangelical Christians and as someone steeped in the Protestant, sometimes anti-Catholic world, we find out, in this episode, what made him consider Catholicism: what drew him in, what drew him deeper, and the questions and realizations that eventually led him to join the Catholic Church. Paul's story is amazing. And, as you might expect, he's a fantastic storyteller.For more from Paul visit his website.
