Summary

I was once immersed in New Age practices and occult ideas, chasing worldly success and external validation. Growing up in a devoted Protestant household in Germany, I always believed in Jesus, but as a teenager I began questioning biblical truths. In spite of achieving success as a digital nomad and building a business, a profound emptiness persisted. When severe panic attacks forced me to confront my inner pain, I cried out in prayer—experiencing a powerful Eucharistic miracle that transformed my life. Now, I rest in the assurance that Jesus provides true freedom and heals my every fear.

In today’s episode Patrick and I discuss his journey from the new age to Roman Catholicism. I hope this conversation helps Protestant and Catholic Christians feel like they can engage with one another in good faith conversations, despite having disagreements on what are, admittedly, important theological issues. Thanks for listening!
