Marcus Grodi

Marcus Grodi and his wife Marilyn were both “cradle Protestants.”  Marcus received his BS degree from Case Institute of Technology in Polymer Engineering and worked for six years as an engineer. During this time he was involved in a variety of Protestant youth and music ministries. He then received his Master of Divinity Degree from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and was ordained to the Protestant pastoral ministry. During his more than fifteen years of youth, young adult, and pastoral ministry, his main emphasis was church and lay spiritual renewal.  Marilyn, Marcus, and their two older sons, Jon Marc and Peter, were received into the Catholic Church on December 20, 1992. Their third son, Richard, entered through baptism.
 
Marcus now serves as the President / Executive Director of The Coming Home Network International, a non-profit Catholic lay apostolate aimed at helping our separated brethren, both clergy and laity, come home to the Catholic Church. He also hosts The Journey Home, a weekly live television program, and Deep In Scripture, a weekly live radio program, both on EWTN.  He is the author of the novel How Firm a Foundation and the editor/author of Journeys Home. He has taught courses in Catechetics, Youth Ministry, and Leadership at Franciscan University of Steubenville and the Pontifical College Josephinum. He writes a regular article for The Catholic Answer magazine and has also written for other Catholic publications.
