The Cordial Catholic 257: The Most Remarkable Catholic Conversion Ever (w/ Ken Kopelson)
In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the incredible Ken Kopelson to tell what I think is one of the most unique and amazing conversion stories I've ever heard.
Raised in a conservative Jewish home, Ken began asking questions about Christianity when a family member converted and began to share about Christ. Those discussions sparked a radical conversion to Christ and 45 years of serving as God's "errand boy" across all manner of ministries, crisscrossing the world, to go where God sent him – and do what God wanted him to do.
Then, prompted by the desire to plant a new church and found a new denomination that got back to Christian roots, Ken began to explore the Early Church. And, remarkably, discovered that it was Catholic.
This is an utterly fascinating journey. I hope you enjoy it!
