AMDG. The conversations we started at Kolbe’s commencement events in Atlanta a few months ago continue to yield fruit. Today’s guest, Jennell Kvistad, joins us to continue one of those conversations today. The group first discusses helping teenagers and newly 18-year-old offspring ease into adulthood. From there, Jennell shares both her family’s road to homeschooling with Kolbe and her personal road to joining the Catholic Church just last year. With vivid specifics, plenty of humor, and even a bit role for the Kolbecast itself, Jennell’s conversion story is profound and encouraging.
