The difficulties encountered by former protestants who become Catholics I am a revert. I was baptized in the Catholic Church. Through a divorce in the family I was raised in Protestant circles, eventually attending a Protestant Bible school. My journey back to the Church came through a church history class and working at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The church history class was abbreviated, meaning it jumped from the Book of Acts to the Reformation. In my spare time I read the Early Church Fathers to fill in the gaps. Years later, while working as a counselor at the Billy Graham association, a friend invited me to his confirmation into the Church. At first I thought it was weird for a Protestant counselor to be joining something as "alien" as the Catholic Church. It was not like changing denominations, it was more like changing religions.
