I don't know if this is likely for me but I'm seriously interested. I've looked into it a couple of times but I'm struggling with some issues. I know about Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) and I would be willing to take those classes even if I didn't actually decide to convert. I'm profoundly disturbed by what I've seen in the Protestant churches and have some serious issues with the Orthodox tradition. I'm not here to bash Protestants and Orthodox but I'm very interested in exploring this possibility, I like the traditions and catechism.
I was at one time big on justification by faith, only to find out it's what Christians have uniformly believed since the time of the Apostles. What is different is a single word, alone, which I think creates an unnatural separation between justification and sanctification. I'm serious about this and it's not the first time I've looked into it. Just curious what kind of advice I would get here.
Grace and peace,
Mark
