Why John Bishop Walked Away from Catholicism—& How He Founded FORGE
42m

What if everything you thought you believed was suddenly in question? How do you rebuild faith after walking away? Dr. John Bishop grew up a strong Catholic, but in college, he made the radical decision to abandon his faith in search of truth.

He explored different religions, tested different worldviews, and chased experiences—only to end up more lost than ever. So how did he find his way back? And what can his journey teach men today about faith, purpose, and Brotherhood?

Now the founder of Forge, John is leading a movement to restore masculinity and spiritual leadership in the Church.

His story is proof that no matter how far you’ve strayed, God is always calling you home. The question is: Will you answer?
