Comments on: 15 Verses Every Catholic Should Know http://www.optionc.net/2008/07/15-verses-every-catholic-should-know/ christian, catholic, conservative in the deep south Wed, 07 Jan 2009 10:43:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Ormond Beach Kevin http://www.optionc.net/2008/07/15-verses-every-catholic-should-know/#comment-16 Ormond Beach Kevin Wed, 09 Jul 2008 17:32:42 +0000 http://www.optionc.net/?p=55#comment-16 I really appreciate learning about how our protestant brothers and sisters find their way home to the Catholic Church. Many have been instrumental in my "reversion" to my faith. I think it saddens the Lord that there is such division in His church. I often wonder what mass would be like if we had a bunch of evangelicals in the pews with their zeal for the faith. Man, would that liven things up a bit! Many catholics of my generation (I'm 45) have been poorly catechized. And it is true that many of us followed the basic precepts (Mass on Sunday, & Holy Days, confession once a year, etc.) but didn't know our faith or really know the Lord. The more I learn about my faith, the more I love it, and therefore, the more I love God. Thanks for taking the time to share parts of your journey. I look forward to reading more.
