The Pickup Game, CS Lewis, and the Search for What the World's All About

In this episode of Unwritten, Trevor Burka sits down with Jack Krosafi to talk about how a casual pickup soccer game led an ardent seeker, raised by a militant atheist, to completely transform his life and enter the Catholic Church.

Whether you're a missionary looking for unexpected encounters with the Holy Spirit, or just curious about how active searching for truth can lead to a miracle of conversion, this conversation will demonstrate that simply being willing to expose Jesus in your life can make all the difference for someone else to start seeking him in their own.

What You’ll Hear:

• The surprising start of a friendship with Kate and Johnny, a couple who Jack met after a two-hour pickup soccer game and who were found "chain smoking cigarettes, reading CS Lewis, and trying to figure out what this world's all about".

• The pivotal moment when Johnny realized God’s love after watching a video of The Chosen depicting Jesus's gaze on the woman at the well, causing him to declare, "If his love is real, I don't need any lesser loves," and immediately throw away his weed and joints.

• The incredible transformation of Johnny, who grew up with a militant atheist dad and no faith background, yet became an active seeker, wrestled with deep philosophical questions like freedom and responsibility, and ultimately was led to join the Church at the Easter Vigil after an encounter with the Blessed Mother during Adoration.
