About this listen
In this episode, Nick and Jenn sit down for an honest and heartfelt conversation about the intersections of Catholicism and Protestantism. They share personal stories, clear up common misconceptions, and talk about how forgiveness and the Holy Spirit have played a role in their own spiritual growth.
The conversation flows from the richness of scripture to the challenges of faith in today’s world—including a thoughtful critique of the prosperity gospel. Drawing inspiration from figures like St. Francis, they also dive into the impact of monastic life, the value of silence and discipline, and what it really means to detach from distractions in pursuit of deeper faith.
Nick and Jenn don’t shy away from tough topics either—like the role of priests, marriage, and personal responsibility in the Church. Throughout it all, they highlight the beauty of interdenominational unity and the unique journeys we all take in our walk with God.
Whether you’re Catholic, Protestant, or somewhere in between, this episode offers a safe space for reflection, curiosity, and connection.
