If you have come here expecting to read a testimony that recounts extraordinary happenings, then prepare to be disappointed. Mine is not a story of a remarkable conversion, there were no supernatural visions, no mystical revelations. Instead, my story is one that charts my exodus from delusion, the delusion of thinking I could outrun God. 

It’s difficult to pinpoint the exact moment this journey of discernment began. One obvious place to begin would be that moment I first pondered the prospect of becoming a priest. The fact is, my journey began long before that, long before I was born, in fact.
