Yesterday I did a phone interview with a reporter from CNN. She wasn’t clear, but I got the impression that it was essentially a pre-interview to decide if they want to do a real interview with me. What was clear is that they are doing a story on the denial of Communion to supporters of abortion and homosexuality. If they decide to use me for it, they’ll let me know. Should happen in the next few days if it does. I’ll let y’all know.

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

Cool Jimmy!
The cynic in me says, they will interview you for an hour and then air only 30 seconds. The 30 seconds will fit their story (and the network’s aim).
