Tsh what you just shared literally brought me tears of joy. I am a long time follower of yours and a cradle Catholic also a licensed pastoral counselor. I have had a complicated dance with the church for years but always return. I generally, this may sound bad, but am not drawn to writers from Protestant backgrounds as I’ve always felt like those from the Catholic, Jewish and Buddhist faiths dive a little deeper into the depths of soul exploration and exploring the big questions. You too always seem too be going deeper with your spiritual introspection making this seems like such an obvious next step. I follow you, Seth, Haley and Shannon K. Evans all recent converts which fascinates me because in my neck of the woods people seem to be fleeing the Catholic Church. I can’t wait to read more about your conversion this is truly a magical gift for Ash Wednesday your words are affirmation to my own personal prayers and very synchronized in timing. I am thrilled for you and your family and for all of us who follow your writing.
