Converts Guide to Catholic Doctrine Announcement
<p>Just a short video today announcing the CGCD Manual. I will be starting a new series called the Convert's Guide to Catholic Doctrine. As a bit of a Revert/Convert, I had to unlearn, relearn and push through falsehoods made about Catholicism and Catholic doctrine. It is my goal to create a manual for use in OCIA or for anyone converting to Catholicism.</p><p><br></p><p>Visit CatholicPiety.com</p><p>X: CatholicPiety</p><p>Instagram: CatholicPietyRVK</p>

THIS IS Holy Communion
<p>In this episode, I share my personal journey transitioning from 15 years in Protestantism—where I was taught communion was merely a symbolic toast—to fully embracing the Catholic doctrine of the true presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist. </p><p>I dive into the scriptural evidence of the Real Presence, from Jesus's "Bread of Life" discourse in John 6 to His clear declarations at the Last Supper. I also explore how early Church Fathers, like St. Ignatius of Antioch in 110 AD, firmly defended that the Eucharist is the literal flesh of Christ. Join me to discover why Holy Communion isn't just a human act of remembrance, but a profound work of God that imparts grace and the forgiveness of sins.</p><p><br></p>
