After 20 Years of Discernment, Keith Nester Became Catholic

Catholic ReCon | Conversion Testimonies

What would make a Protestant pastor with more than 20 years in ministry leave everything behind to become Catholic? In this week's episode of Catholic ReCon, Keith Nester shares the conversion story that took two decades to unfold. Keith served as a pastor and youth pastor in United Methodist, Assemblies of God, and Evangelical Free churches. But throughout his years in Protestant ministry, questions about the Catholic faith continued to follow him. After a 20-year process of discernment, Keith reached a point where he had to make a decision. In 2017, he resigned from full-time Protestant ministry and entered the Catholic Church. In this conversation, Keith shares what kept drawing him toward Catholicism, what made the journey take so long, the cost of becoming Catholic as a Protestant pastor, and what he has learned since coming into the Church. 🌎 Learn more about Keith Nester and Down to Earth Ministries: https://down2earthministry.org Keith is the author of The Convert’s Guide to Roman Catholicism: Your First Year in the Church and Unpacking the Mysteries of the Rosary.
