In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Holly Ordway to talk about imagination, evangelization, and her journey into the Catholic Church as an atheist academic. It's a fantastic interview which touches on her conversion story, the use of imagination in apologetics, important points to consider while speaking about Christianity, and the why Dr. Ordway wasn't satisfied by becoming an Protestant Christian and found herself, to her surprise, going all the way to Rome. For more from Dr. Holly Ordway visit her website and be sure to check out her books which are favourites of mine, Not God's Type: An Atheist Academic Lays Down Her Arms and Apologetics and the Christian Imagination.
