Today I want to share with you a two hour long conversation I had with a Protestant Baptist

0:04.9

pastor from Kentucky named Wendell. He invited me on a recent Twitter or X space to talk about Catholic theology.

0:11.6

We did that for two hours. We also had Daniel

0:14.0

aka Darwin to Jesus, another Protestant ex-user. Both of them asked me really
