David Currie
David Currie was raised in a devout Christian family whose father was a fundamentalist preacher
and both parents teachers at Moody Bible Institute. Currie's whole upbringing was immersed in the
life of fundamentalist Protestantism - theology professors, seminary presidents and founders of
evangelical mission agencies were frequent guests at his family dinner table. Currie himself received
a degree from Trinity International University and studied in the Masters of Divinity program at Trinity
Evangelical Divinity School.
This book was written as an explanation to his fundamentalist and evangelical friends and family
about why he became a Roman Catholic. Currie presents a very lucid, systematic and intelligible
account of the reasons for his conversion to the ancient Church that Christ founded. He gives a
detailed discussion of the important theological and doctrinal beliefs Catholic and evangelicals hold
in common, as well as the key doctrines that separate us, particularly the Eucharist, the Pope, and
Mary.
"David Currie has written what may turn out to be the work on this nettlesome topic of
Evangelicals being received into the Catholic Church. With great charity and lucidity, he pursues
every conceivable topic biblical, ecclesiological, theological, and historical that arises in the
discussions on this matter. Readers will find what he has written to be, I think, ineluctable."

. . . . . "David Currie has given us a work which is eminently intelligible, logical, readable and personal
at one and the same time. This book makes an especially happy marriage of the 'head' and the
'heart' in explaining the when, the why and the how of his pilgrimage. In this way, it can and should
serve as a paradigm for the movement of 'Everyman' toward God and the Church His divine Son
founded."
