Mark Neugebauer, a former Messianic Jew, joins Gus in the Conversion Corner. Mark grew up in a traditional Jewish household but slowly moved towards Catholicism through Christmas carols, the 1977 TV movie "Jesus of Nazareth," and going to see Handel's Messiah performed every year. After his initial conversion to Messianic Judaism, his father, a Polish Holocaust survivor, didn't speak to him for 25 years. He eventually converted to Catholicism in 2009, Mark shares his amazing story with Gus and the listeners. Watch his recent appearance on the Coming Home Network here.
Also, in the movie "I Can Only Imagine," which tells the story of MercyMe lead singer Bart Millard's story, one of the major plot points is the conversion of his abusive father. Inspired by that, as well as his conversation with Mark, Gus talks with listeners who experienced later-in-life conversions.
