We tend to think of conversion as something that happens and is then finished. Open, close, done. But conversion is a lifelong process. If I’ve learned one thing in the last five years of blogging about life at the intersection of faith, family and the written word, that’s it. Where faith is concerned, if we’re not moving forward, we’re stagnating. This is the topic of my February column for Liguorian magazine. Hope you’ll take a look.Conversion is never “one and done”

My sister, a nun, never takes “permanent” vows as her devotion to the church is continual. It’s an interesting concept – that her commitment is reaffirmed annually.
What a cool way to do things! Thanks for sharing that.
I loved your column. Brief and thorough, and brought the point home. Thank you. God bless you.
Thanks!
I enjoyed the article. Conversion, like catechesis is a life-long endeavor. I think for me it is because as my experiences in life change, so does my understanding of God, his will for me and my faith.

Yes, exactly! This is why the whole confirmation-as-graduation-from-Catholicism thing has always bugged me.
