Convert Man: Fun with Water Rockets

In case you didn't see it already, here's a video I put together of a fun family outing over the weekend.

Why Convert?

Why on earth would a Bible-school educated evangelical Protestant with a touch of the charismatic movement ever become Catholic?!? Isn't that going backwards?

This is a question many of my friends and family could not understand. Ultimately, the answer was one of authority: who has it? As a Protestant, my answer was always "The Bible."

But I never stopped to ask myself if the Bible itself claims that it has final authority in all spiritual and moral matters of any importance.

It does not.

There are countless references in Scripture to there being sources of the Truth other than what is Written. I explained my reasoning (albeit sloppily) based on passages from my old NIV Bible way back in 1998, and later posted it to my blog. For a better explanation, c heck this out.

I was actually very surprised to discover this truth, and once I did the only logical place to turn was to the only place which claims to retain the oral teachings of the faith of old.

Since I "crossed the Tiber" I've had no regrets, despite the lost friendships and tense moments with my family. It's all worth it. See Matthew 13:44.
