    ----
    A lot of people leave the Catholic Church for many reasons.
    Fulton Sheen once said, “There are not one hundred people ... who hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.”
    Fortunately, there are also a growing number of people who are finally realizing the truth, goodness, and real beauty of the Catholic Faith established by our Lord Jesus Christ.
    There are many Filipino converts and reverts, and Jake Bersabe of the Unboxing Catholicism Community is one of them.
    Watch this unplanned and spontaneous vlog interview of Jake with Bernz, the founder of Unboxing Catholicism who was also a former anti-Catholic Protestant himself.
    Grab your popcorn and let's rejoice at how the writings of C.S. Lewis and G.K. Chesterton helped Jake see how Catholicism makes so much sense.

    Thank God there is a Filipino version of Coming Home Network. I'm a Catholic Filipina who loves the Lord and Holy Mother Church.
    Filipino Catholics who don't know their faith often become Protestant. But Protestants who are reading the Early Fathers, Aquinas, GK Chesterton, and who make the intellectual pursuit of the Truth end up converting to Catholicism. Because the Catholic Faith is the one true faith and the Catholic Church is Christ's true Church and has His authority given to the Peter and the successors of the Apostles.
    Catholics, know your Faith. It is the fullness of the Truth.

    Glad that there are Filipino YT channels that talk about these things. We Filipinos bastante sa sacraments but poorly catechized and often times most of us are not able to defend our faith properly. Nice that you are starting a "culture" of apologetics in a noncombative way. Let's win souls, not arguments. 1 Peter 3:15-16 "But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander". We in Iloilo started a small group doing this weekly, we meet virtually since some of your members work outside the country.

    I'm just blessed and glad I was able to join the Catholic Charismatic Group during elem days, sumasama ako sa Mama ko, Praising and dancing for the Lord , at a very young age, I was indoctrinated with our Catholic Faith, , in College, I joined the Christ Youth in Action , under the Catholic Charismatic, constantly may doctrinal topics kami during LSS , mas lumalim yung kaalaman ko sa ating faith. now I'm in my 40's I still continue , learning , listening and watching na mas pinanalalim yung akong Pananampalatayang Katoliko, and I'm serving the Lord through different ministries in the Parish. ..thank you Lord. and thank you Bro Bernz and your company for this Unboxing channel , mas lumalim yung kaalaman ko.

    Welcome back! Anybody can be prodigal sons at one point in their lives. Yet, when one persists to search for the truths of the journey as Catholics, one finds the understanding again in more light, depth and joy. I thank God, that by His grace He found you both, so that you can find many more back into a journey of rediscovery and revival. Blessed are you, who now use your gifts to allow people to understand Catholicism better. To find, to see and to listen to you, two men, who don't cringe at the defense of their faith with honest admissions to their own realizations and present the rediscovery of Catholicism in a rationale way is awesome!

    This interview is so good. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Your story is so relatable to others who are on the fence, perhaps that relatability and new approach of “culture” will bring others back to Catholicism.

    What church did God send to the Philippines? And chose the Philippines as the only Asian country blessed by grace to be a Christian country? It was the Catholic church. The non-Catholic churches have become karaoke or singing clubs not true worship of the Lord whose suffering is offered to God our Father at every Catholic mass all over the world. Jesus is why we are all still here. God the Father could have destroyed a long time ago.

    👁‍🗨rare at first time may maligaw na filipino conversion sfory/revelation & reflection ng mga nag-convert para maging katoliko(ulit) ☺
    Lagi kong kino-consider na mga lost coins mga cradle catholics tapos nag-convert, at umuwi ulit. Pretty much the parable of the lost coin sa luke 15: 1-8 🏷(○゚ε゚○)

    Vatican 2 changed the previous councils regarding those who did not see the pope's as the universal bishop over all churches. The past history of the Catholic condemned heretic's and schismatics who did not succumb to the infallibility of the pope's regarding morals s and scripture interpretation.

      There was this Filipino family ,whose the mother was active in the showbiz before,during her prime.They live in California and were very anti Catholic. Their children couldnt understand the endless church hopping among Evangelical churches.When the father gets tired of their Pastors ,they hop to another church.when he didnt like the fellow worshippers there,they hop over and over again. The son went to Paris and he visited the Notre Dame church .He was in awe.he decided to study Catholicism.to make long story short ,he ,his sibling and mother converted to Catholicism.Do not if his father did as well .viewed his testimony few yrs back .this year alone tens of thousands of Evangelicals and very active Born Again Christians converted to Catholicism ,here in the US,including a contingent from Harvard and Yale Universities .Last year at least one very famous young Born Again YT vlogger ,converted to Catholicism as well .His channel is Capturing Christianity. If you want to view tons of Converts stories to Catholicism,watch them at www.chnetwork.org. They include former staunch anti Catholic Evangelical Bible Scholars,Theologians,Historians ,Intellectuals ,hundreds of Pastors,to name a few!
