Catholic by Choice: Why I Embraced the Faith, Joined the Church, and Embarked on the Adventure of a Lifetime
āI look around the church as we sing. I was expecting the Hollywood version of a monastery, something European looking, with vineyards and massive stone buildings and ivy-covered cloisters. I wanted sturdy monks singing with deep, vibrant voices, like the Gregorian chant CDs that I play at home when I take a hot bath and light candles and sticks of incense.
ā¦ Why am I here? To get a bit of rest. Read a few books. Thatās what I thought, anyway. Now, Iām not sure.ā
Richard Cole initially saw his trip to a monastery inĀ western Texas as a retreatāto check out for a few days,Ā maybe a chance to catch up on his reading. Instead,Ā Cole embarks on a zigzagging roller coaster of emotionĀ and examination as he discerns, dissects, and discoversĀ the incredible vibrancy of the Catholic community.Ā Catholic by Choice provides a funny and joyous lookĀ at adult Catholic conversion from the point of viewĀ of a modern convert, telling a deeply personal yetĀ relatable story of discovery, doubt, and finding a placeĀ at Godās table.
