John Henry Newman, a former Anglican clergyman who converted to Catholicism, continues to inspire many to embrace the Catholic faith.
A renowned scholar, Ryan "Bud" Marr, credits Newman's legacy for his own Catholic conversion, saying:
Without his legacy, perhaps I would not be Catholic today
Newman's quote,
to be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant, was instrumental in Marr's conversion, who was studying to be a Protestant pastor at the time.
