From Agnostic to Deacon describes how God's grace took Theresa's husband, Kevin, from agnosticism into ministry. It begins with Kevin's family's unusual combination of being Southern and Catholic, how he grows apart from the faith during his teenage years, and his entry into the Navy. He met his wife, Theresa, at military music school and knew she was someone special. In the early years of their marriage she often went to church alone, and she shares her heartache about that. However, Theresa's perseverance in prayer not only resulted in Kevin coming to church with her, it set in motion a series of events that would change their lives forever. She shares the twists and turns in their life, what they learned, and how these became stepping stones for their future--one they never could have imagined. By their yeses along the way and stepping out in faith, they discover the surprises God had in store for them all along. If you think miracles are for others or don't happen anymore, Kevin and Theresa are living proof that God is full of surprises, life is full of possibilities, and yes, even miracles!About the Author: Theresa, a lifelong Catholic, has published articles in Deacon's Digest, a national deacon's magazine.
