SW News: Carrie Gessel McCarthy, a former atheist, converted to Catholicism after listening to American priest Fr Mike Schmitz’s The Bible in a Year podcast. She posted about her conversion in 'The Catechism in a Year' Facebook group on Monday, June 5.
“After a lifetime of atheism/agnosticism, I began listening to the Bible in a year in September 2021. Yesterday, my son and I were baptized, received our first Holy Communion, and I was confirmed! God is good! Thank you to Father Mike! I would not have made it home to the Catholic Church without his enthusiasm and love for God guiding me every day," Carrie said.
“You bring tears to my eyes and joy to my heart! Welcome Home!,” a person commented. “Congratulations! I’m on a similar journey,” another comment reads.
The Bible in a Year podcast, which ran from January 1, 2021, to December 31 of that year featuring Duluth diocese priest Fr Mike, was a huge success. It has been among the top listened podcasts on platforms including Spotify. Following its success, Fr Mike launched The Catechism in a Year podcast this year. In a span of 365 days, he would cover the entire Catechism of the Catholic Church. The podcast has been available on most of the popular podcast apps including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Hallow.
