A Protestant Visits an Irish Catholic Church in Chicago

I hope these videos help Christians understand and like each other better, and I hope these help people who aren't Christians understand Christianity and God better.

I've been aware of Old Saint Patrick's Church for a long time, but this was my first chance to visit, and it did not disappoint. The Church is doing great stuff in downtown Chicago, and on top of that, the remarkable art, design, and stained glass are all based on the Book of Kells.

It’s so nice to see Protestants who respect us Catholics. That is true Christianity.

Asking for prayer requests from Saints in heaven, just as I have asked for prayer request from people living on Earth, has been one of the biggest game changers of my journey inside the Catholic faith. The amount of peace, and support I have felt from praying with our Blessed Mother, St Joseph, St Michael, St Anthony, St JP II, St Jean Vianney, and so many others is something I will always be thankful for. Praise God for the great cloud of witnesses!

Love the joy this gal has in her tour. While I'm not a Catholic, this channel has given me such a ecumenical appreciation for my other Brothers and Sisters in Christ. Love the quote "They don't have the power to change things, but they are with the One who does." That's a great explanation.

The young lady providing the tour did an incredible job! Just amazing job to represent her faith! WELL DONE!

Being an Irish Catholic I appreciate how you go about visiting different churches. I’ve watched your show for years because of it

From a catholic, thank you for disagreeing with catholic theology in such a humble and respectful manner .

[mlindeblad]

Very well done coming together of an evangelical pastor and a solid historical Catholic Church in Chicago. I was raised an Evangelical, and when I was 33, I joined the Catholic Church after asking a lot of questions and going to a lot of holy Masses- had profound experiences. The Catholic Church goes all the way back to Pentecost, the birthday of the church, and that’s part of the attraction.

I love these "visits" you do. ...and the smile on your boy's face. Special times.

Always get excited when I see Matt Whittman visited a different church.

I’m a born again Catholic and I love Matt Whitman humility and honesty about his journey. He’s super charitable to all Catholics and denominations. I love his interpretation and commentary of church architecture

[kynesilagan]

I dare to say, converts who wrestle the most are / will be the best witnesses when they come home.
Praying for the likes of you, Matt.

Labrynth is sign of Christ the vine, we are the branches. Converted to Catholicism from Presbyterianism in 2015, best thing I ever did!

This woman is amazing, knowledgeable and engaging.

Matt, wonderful work and great questions during your interview. I thought Keara did a great job of explaining Roman Catholic teaching in a very accessible way. One of the comforting things about being Catholic (at least for me) is that no matter where you are in the world, you can go into a Catholic Church and feel at home.

He still introduced it as the ten minute Bible hour and that made me happy

[christinanicole]

This Church is beautiful and your tour guide was very good and knowledgeable to break down the faith. I love how every little thing is intentional in the architecture of the Church. ❤️

[Compulsive-Elk]

Matt, thank you for your kindness and respectfulness towards the Catholic church.

I'm a Catholic. I love our protestant brothers and sisters in Christ

Glory to Jesus Christ 🙏☦️❤️

[xelan]

Love it! She is such a great communicator.

[billstahlman]

Great tour of a wonderful piece of architectural history. Keara was a great guide and loving soul in how she communicated the Catholic faith.
