I agree with feeling closer to the Lord as a Catholic. I was brought up Lutheran but converted 8 years ago.

I also agree with everything you posted.

Great advice, Amber.
I will only add that if Melissa is as "cautious" as I was, she may want to start with "objective" sources like an encyclopedia,or history books that present (just) the facts. Filling in the gaps of secular history with Christian history (early Church Fathers).
Another great post!

Thanks, Tim. Can you give us a book title or two? I might be interested myself!

World Christian Encyclopedia (Barrett)
Encyclopedia of Early Christianity(Ferguson)
Who was Who in Church History (Moyer)
95 Theses (Luther)
Church History (Eusebius- book 2 and 13)
Letters of Ignatius of Antioch and other letters by the Church Fathers

Happy reading! :)
