David and Roseanna White came from a strong Baptist faith, and Roseanna began a successful career writing Christian historical fiction, with David founding a publishing house. Fascinated by CS Lewis and his description of Christianity as a house with different denominational rooms, Roseanna decided to search out which “room” she belonged in.
The more she and David researched it, the more they realized that the roots of Christianity were ultimately Catholic; it was the Catholic Church that put together the Bible, that preserved the Faith, and that had the fulness of truth. They came into the Catholic Church together in the Fall of 2021.
