367: Why I Quit Church Shopping and Became Catholic (w/ Dr. LuElla D'Amico)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic I'm joined, by Dr. LuElla D'Amico, an author, Professor of English, and a convert to the Catholic faith to talk about the roots of her conversion journey and what it means, for a church-shopping Evangelical Christian, to find an ultimate home in Catholicism. It's a great conversation as we dig into exactly what it means to "surrender" to the Truth of Catholicism, how accepting the authority of the Church isn't the same as finding a church that "ticks all the boxes," and the role of Truth, Beauty, and good literature shapes the Catholic life.
It's a fantastic conversation!
