In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Taylor from GemmaintheRough (on Instagram and TikTok) to talk about her journey as a charismatic, non-denominational Christian leading worship at her church to a full-blown conversion to Catholicism. Taylor's story is amazing as she asks incredible questions about how and why her non-denominational church worshipped the way they did – and how the Early Church worshipped differently!

How could they have weekly "altar calls" without an altar? How could they claim to "worship" God without offering any kind of sacrifice in the biblical pattern?

This and so much more makes up Taylor's awesome conversion story. She is cordial, enthusiastic, and so articulate. You don't want to miss this episode.

For more from Taylor find her on Instagram and TikTok.
