During college, I had two professors whose mix of Christian witness and philosophical rigor served as an inspiration to me and helped to rejuvenate my at that time rather lax and limpid faith. Neither of these professors were Catholic at the time, though both have since become so. One of the two, Prof. Rob Koons, recently appeared on the EWTN program The Journey Home and explained the course of his conversion from Missouri Synod Lutheranism to Catholicism. Audio of his appearance can be found here. (Thanks to Francis Beckwith of What’s Wrong With the World for the link). Prof. Koons also wrote a sort of philosophical journal during his conversion titled A Lutheran’s Case for Roman Catholicism, which is available here.
