359: Why Are So Many People Becoming Catholic? (w/ Fr. Joseph-Anthony Kress, OP)
from The Cordial Catholic · host Keith Little, Father Joseph-Anthony Kress
In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my new friend (and potential blood relative) Father Joseph-Anthony Kress, OP to talk about the surge of recent Catholic converts, the role of the saints and the rosary in this conversion wave, and why non-Catholic Christians considering Catholicism shouldn't be afraid of giving the rosary – an ancient, powerful prayer practice rooted in Scripture – a try! It's a great conversation with a wonderfully generous and cordial Dominican! The best kind! For more from Fr. Kress check out the Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage.You can also listen to him on the Godsplaining podcast.Send your feedback to [email protected].
