The episode was with Dr. John Bergsma, and he mentioned that living in graduate student housing with many devout Catholic families was a what got him started on the journey to Catholicism. I was friends with his wife, Dawn, there in the graduate housing complex, and we still exchange Christmas cards. They were already Catholic when I met them, so I wasn't aware of their long journey. I only heard in passing that John was a former minister!
I couldn't help sharing, since I know some of you probably watched it as well.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the program, The Journey Home is a show on EWTN which features converts to Catholicism sharing their conversion stories. You can see the show schedule and upcoming people here. Don't get EWTN? You can watch online, or listen to the audio of previous shows from the beginning, or the most recent.
