060: Why Would A Bible Loving Southern Baptist Become Catholic? (w/ Sonja Corbitt)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by the incredibly personable Sonja Corbitt, the Bible Study Evangelista, to talk about her journey out of her strong Southern Baptist roots and into the Catholic Church.

It's an incredible story that touches on what happens when her deep, deep love of Scripture slams head on into issues of authority, interpretation, and church splits. Plus, we talk about Mary, the Early Church, and Martin Luther's use of curse words.

For more from Sonja, visit her fantastic website where you can listen to her audio, watch her TV show, and pick up any of her wonderful books.
