A unique show for those seeking answers

I don't know of any other show that deals specifically with faith conversions. So here you meet people from all sorts of backgrounds sharing their most intimate experiences, thoughts and knowledge in their journeys of faith.

The show focuses mainly on protestants who converted to the Catholic Faith. Although there is an occasional atheist and agnostic or revert to Catholicism, it is mainly protestants that the host, Marcus Grodi, a former Protestant minister himself, brings to the show.

Stories of protestant conversions isn't exactly my cup of tea as I grew up in the traditional Christianity environment - Orthodox - where Protestantism is widely considered a kind of an oddity and sectarianism, and it would be interesting to see more people from traditional religions. But this is hardly the fault of the show as the Christian environment in the US is largely Protestant.

I'm sure people who are church hopping or have doubts about their own protestant faith or want to here about the Catholic Church and its Christian faith first hand will find this show extremely informative and interesting.

I've seen quite a lot of episodes which are freely available on YouTube and particularly enjoyed, to name but a few, the shows with former baptist fundamentalist and now a catholic apologist Steve Ray, former Episcopalian Dr. Thomas Howard, former atheists Dr. Holly Ordway and Jennifer Fulwiler.

And if you are, because of the widespread misconceptions, wondering just what on earth can possibly bring someone to the Catholic Church, and not just the ordinary folk but university and medical doctors, convinced Protestant pastors, outspoken atheists, here they speak for themselves.
