The Cordial Catholic

268: Discovering that the Early Church Wasn't Baptist (w/ Brayden Cook)

Keith Little, Brayden Cook

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the incredible Brayden Cook, the host of The Catechumen YouTube channel, to talk about his conversion to Catholicism as an intern Baptist minister.

Brayden's story – which is my own story in so many aspects – begins by encountering the Early Church Fathers and realizing that they didn't look like his local Baptist and non-denominational churches. This realization spurred Brayden to look deeper in Catholicism and to begin to unwind some of the misconceptions that he held about Catholics, dig deeper into the Early Church, and eventually decide to become a Catholic himself.

Brayden shares his amazing insights this week on the show.
