Our second discussion of the Eucharist is live!!
Did Paul believe in the "Real Presence" of Christ in the Eucharist?
What did he mean by "supernatural" food and drink in I Corinthians 10?
What was he warning against in I Corinthians 11?

Look around any town, and you will find numerous churches of different denominations, each conducting their services differently on a Sunday morning.
Some of them observe a liturgical form in elaborate buildings; others are more free form with contemporary music in modern spaces; some meet in arenas, and others in homes.
But outside of the book of Acts, do we have any evidence from the first decades of Christianity that gives us an indication of how the first Christians worshipped?
Here’s a quick look at the Epistle of Clement of Rome to the Corinthians, written in the first century. Notice the clues it gives us into how the earliest Christians prayed and worshipped when they gathered on the Lord’s Day.

If anyone seeing this is in OCIA or seriously looking into the Catholic faith & worried about how your family may respond, I hope this is helpful. Never be afraid of following where the Lord leads! 🙏 @chnetwork

Matt Gerald came from a small denomination based in Mississippi, which most of his family was a part of.

What do Country Music and Catholicism have to do with one another?
More than you may realize...
@mattswaim, @TerenceJSweeney and Bo Bonner from @IACatholicRadio discuss sin, grace, and what good country music gets right about God and the world: youtube.com/watch?v=Fe9BC2pA…

For a while I've been wanting to do an in-depth episode about the sacramental hunger and incarnational impulse of country music, and its overlap with the Catholic paradigm
Finally had the chance to talk to Bo Bonner and @TerenceJSweeney

When Billy Graham passed away in February of 2018, I wrote a short article for @chnetwork about Graham's friendship with Archbishop Fulton Sheen.
Seems appropriate to share on the occasion of Sheen's beatification today: chnetwork.org/2018/02/21/bil…

Sep 15 is the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows
Some Marian dogmas aren't mentioned explicitly in the Bible, but are inferred from Scripture & affirmed by tradition
But all 7 sorrows of Mary are detailed clearly in the Gospels
I wrote about it for @chnetwork:chnetwork.org/2026/09/15/our…

What’s in the Bible of the 4th Bishop of Rome in the year 96 AD? Let’s see what he (who is named in the Bible) quotes AS the Bible.
NEW episode of On the Journey!
@mattswaim, Ken Hensley, and @KennyBurchard continue their series on Clement of Rome, and what he tells us about early Christianity.

Clement of Rome was a bishop who knew the apostles and whose writings have survived to the present day
In this episode, we got into what he says about faith and obedience

Did Clement of Rome really teach “faith alone?” We unpack it all here!
NEW episode of On the Journey!
@mattswaim, Ken Hensley, and @KennyBurchard look at what Clement has to say about the relationship between faith and obedience.
Do his writings bear any resemblance to the Reformation doctrine of “faith alone”? youtu.be/IahDzcKVEGQ?si=-cs3…

Finally got a chance to watch Ken's testimony on @chnetwork such a blessing; I love how God works in people's life stories. Also, really appreciated the discussion on journalism and Catholic journalism in particular.

If you're a new Catholic or even someone just checking things out, we have a free online community, multiple weekly Zoom meetings, and lots of other great ways to connect and grow.
It's an incredible group of people, and truly a blessing to be a part of.

In my later Evangelical years, it became increasingly important to me to somehow reclaim the worship experience of the earliest Christians
My assumption being that outside of the book of Acts, we didn't have any reliable records of what that looked like
But it turns out we do
