How the Church Fathers Made Me Catholic

A Former Protestant’s Journey to the Catholic Church.

Joshua Charles is one of the rising stars of the Millennial generation. A bestselling author, historian, researcher, and international speaker, he is a passionate defender of America’s Founding Principles, Judeo-Christian civilization, and the Catholic faith, to which he converted in 2018. He loves telling, and helping others tell, great stories that communicate great truths.

I was protestant growing up and then I became an atheist because Christianity seemed stupid as a seventh day Adventist teenager. I have come back to Christ and decided to be diligent with what denomination I would choose and Catholicism won with zero difficulty. I can’t wait to join the church Easter of 2025. Pray for me.

I love being catholic, lots of people try to preach Protestantism to me but I’ve been watching lots of Catholicism videos and has really helped me understand my faith and to defend my faith. Thank you

I was baptized Catholic, but my parents joined a doomsday religious cult which I was raised in, and exited in 1993 and became protestant. In 2020 I converted to Catholicism, I love my Catholic faith!

My soon 21 year old son and I converted from protestant to catholic last October after learning the truth about the Eucharist and getting to know our church priest Father John. All glory be with our Lord God King Jesus! May God's grace bestow upon all of you, reading this. Shalom ❤

Being Protestant raised! I grew up southern Baptist. I have been through several denominations but I always found contradictions in the theology there are so many denominations which definitely are divisions. So I studied the church history. I am now a baptized and confirmed Catholic! I’ve never been happier!! Thanks be to God the Father and Our Lord Jesus 😊

Happy to have left Protestantism for the true Apostolic Church. Glory to Jesus Christ!

Famous Cardinal Newman quote. : “To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant.”
He was a convert from Anglicanism.

Oh my goodness!! I was on the RCIA team who brought your father into the Church!! He spoke about you a lot and very fondly. I’m so happy to hear your story ❤ say hi to Don for me!

This is a tremendous apologetic summation of why Catholicism is the only answer when Christianity is the question. Well done Mr. Charles.

I wish more Protestants would read about the lives of the saints. I think it would seriously help to dismantle people’s negative opinions about the Catholic Church. Hearing the Catholic faith from the mouths of the saints breaks your heart open and it was one the things that solidify the Church’s legitimacy for me.

Awesome testimony! I was converted by the Church Fathers & the Eucharist.🙏❤️

POPE BENEDICT XVI: “People should not fear God, thinking he is always ready to punish, but rather they should love him because he is always ready to forgive.
God is not a relentless sovereign who condemns the guilty, but a loving father whom we must love not out of fear of punishment, but because of his goodness.
The Lord is a God who is just, but always ready to reveal himself as merciful and compassionate.”

Love Joshua Charles! He helped me with my reversion back to the faith with his deep tweets and conversations. One of the most well-versed Catholics and historians I’ve ever been introduced to

I am Catholic. Sent this to my “Bible only” son-in-law who pastors a Bible church.
