My 30-Year Journey From Protestantism to Catholicism: Sam Nunnally

Why is Gen Z turning away from modern hype-driven culture and embracing ancient Catholicism? Former Protestant pastor turned Catholic apologist Sam Nunnally joins the podcast to share his 30-year journey into the Church, his work leading the fastest-growing campus ministry in the country, and why young people are catechizing themselves through rational inquiry.  We dive deep into the unexpected boom of Catholic college students, the necessity of a "pastoral apologetics" approach to mental health, and how the ancient Church provides a rock-solid foundation amidst modern chaos. Sam also unpacks why our cultural anxiety around Artificial Intelligence is a classic moral panic—and how Catholics can redeem modern technology to rebuild the temple rather than construct Babel.🔗 MENTIONS & RESOURCES Join the discussion: https://floreology.com Truthly: https://www.truthly.ai/ Find Sam Nunnally at https://itsokaytobecatholic.org/⏳ TIMESTAMPS 00:25 Sam Nunnally: Journey from Protestantism to Catholicism 10:01 The Charismatic Movement and Early Church Connections 19:44 Engaging Gen Z: The Rise of Young Catholics 29:45 Mental Health and Faith: A Holistic Approach 34:03 The Search for Stability in Modern Culture 40:05 The Catholic Church: A Refuge from Chaos 46:34 Truthly AI: Bridging Faith and Technology 01:07:33 Embracing Catholic Identity🎙️ ABOUT THE SHOW Floreology is dedicated to the science of human flourishing, and how it intersects with Christianity.
