I’ll be doing a live-streamed reading of my book, “Stunned by Scripture: How the Bible Made Me Catholic,” from chapter 3, “I have a confession t make,” about how the Sacrament of Confession factored into my conversion to the Catholic Church. I’ll post links to follow it soon. It will be hosted via Facebook streaming.
