About this Episode
What if becoming Catholic wasn’t just a class, but a public commitment that changes your entire life?
Gomer and Dave unpack the Rite of Acceptance into the Order of Catechumens in the OCIA process and why it marks a serious turning point in someone’s journey toward Christ. They explore how the early Church treated baptism as a life-altering decision, why the Church publicly “receives” catechumens, and what it means to say yes to following Jesus in a real, concrete way. They also discuss conversion, spiritual warfare, and why modern discipleship often lacks the weight it once carried.
