The article recounts the author's year-long journey interviewing two former comedians who converted to Christianity. Initially intrigued yet apprehensive, the author reflects on the transformative power of faith observed in these men. Their dedication and the impact of their newfound belief posed an existential challenge for the author, leading to a personal confrontation with the idea of faith and its ability to reshape one's life. Ultimately, the author's experience ignites a quest for understanding their own beliefs in relation to Christianity.
Through those encounters, it was as if the very corner of the sky had been pulled back.
I found it astonishing: the way a conversion arrives like a volta in a person's life, an act simultaneously as destructive and constructive.
I became disturbed by the idea that faith might so alter a person's life they would have to leave behind all those outside its perimeters.
I knew I could never let my faith redefine my life in such a way.
