Summary

Question: What do you get when you take a Canadian Presbyterian pastor's kid and send him to an orthodox American Catholic university where he has to take a Natural Family Planning class with a pretty girl? Answer: A convert with eight kids! That's what. But unlike a lot of Catholic converts in the public eye, Kevin Lowry is a businessman. That doesn't mean he doesn't do the normal convert stuff. His conversion story, which we're going to hear a good bit of, is in Surprised by Truth 2. He's also the author of a book titled Faith at Work: Finding Purpose Beyond the Paycheck. Kevin speaks at parish missions and conferences, too, and even serves as a consultant for The Coming Home Network for Marcus Grodi. But as I said, he's a little different than many converts with a platform. Kevin's full-time gig is that of Chief Financial Officer for a digital marketing company (not to mention being a father to all those kids). What does that mean? It means he's a practical guy that a lot of people can relate to. He's a passionate Catholic man who loves the Lord, loves the Church, and is a witness to how the Lord can change your life. So sit back, pour yourself a warm cup of coffee, and enjoy a fabulous story. God bless! Matthew "All who have been lost were lost because they did not pray." St. Alphonsus Liguori. Don't be lost!
