As a convert to Catholicism, I love the stories of fellow converts. It brings to life the unique love of our God, how He can draw straight with crooked lines.
My guest, Jane Manka of @thesaltytribeco, on Episode 152 of The Catholic Mama podcast has quite a conversion story herself, having been raised Muslim by her stepfather, chafing under the authority and leaning into occult practices to making her way to a cherry-picked Protestantism.
And then, one day not in the very dim past, Jane found herself standing in the Church that Jesus built and realizing a lifetime of seeking had brought her home to Catholicism.
Hearing Jane share her story was a real treat, and she was such fun to chat with (Also, we’ve been using her Year 1 Catholic minimalist homeschool curriculum, Salt + Light, and LOVING it so it was awesome to fangirl over that for a bit with her as well).
Download the episode below or listen to it on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play or anywhere you normally access podcasts. The Catholic Mama is there!
And be sure to connect with Jane on her website SacredByTheSea and on Instagram @thesaltytribeco.
Also! I just launched The Domestic Church, a monthly membership that helps busy Catholic moms and dads enjoy guided spiritual readings through a unique virtual book club, plan a minimalist feast day celebration, and request a spiritual bouquet. Just $10 a month, this patreon-like membership will help The Catholic Mama continue to reach more Catholics seeking to deepen their faith. Learn more and sign up HERE!
