Apologist Matthew Arnold was involved in the occult when he met a priest who brought him into the Catholic Church.
Catholic apologist and convert Matthew Arnold has a unique background which includes years of working as a professional magician, including serving as a consultant to prominent actors and performers (e.g., singer Michael Jackson) and warming up studio audiences for hit television programs. His Hollywood background also includes exposure to the New Age movement, of which, today, he warns audiences to steer clear.
Matthew grew up in North Hollywood in a non-denominational Protestant family that seldom attended church. As a teenager, years before becoming Catholic, he became involved in the New Age movement, and was specifically interested in channeling (communication with spirits), reading tarot cards and astrology.
