I used to be on this forum but not for a while. I was trying to get closer to God.

I was raised as Catholic but I was only a nominal Catholic. I left the Catholic Church and went Protestant in college. I became involved in Campus Crusade for Christ and went to Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois. After I graduated I became a pastor at a Baptist church for 3 years. But I had a bad experience and found intellectual problems with Protestantism. So I came back to the Catholic faith and has remained Catholic for the last 20 years.

Welcome back. I think I have been here around ten years.

I was involved with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship back in college but stayed Catholic., growing along the way.

Good to have you here. I hope to hear more of your story as time goes on.
