Have you ever felt like you were trapped in a situation beyond your control? If so, The Long and Winding Road: From Cultic to Catholic by Mark E. Komula proves that the possibility of escape is real. Deacon Mark creates a tangible "build up" of tension, shifting, life-changing events, as he shares his journey from cultic control to Catholic freedom. The reader learns that true transformation and conversion does not happen in a single event, but is instead a process of facing your daily questions and doubts in search of the TRUTH, leading to the realization that you are in the wrong place. It takes courage to break free... to move forward toward a faith filled with life, light, and joy.

Deacon Komula’s book is one of the few I have read that held my interest through every chapter. It is an “easy read” and I found it hard to put down. I found myself feeling “moved" by what he and his family must have experienced through the many touching and inspiring accounts that shaped the personal, professional, and spiritual life of the Deacon.

When first introduced to Mark Komula’s book, I was completely drawn into his story - a story of family, love, heartbreak, and a search for belonging in one’s faith. I was greatly inspired by Mark’s courage to question ideals ingrained at an early age as he searched for a deeper and more fulfilling relationship with God, culminating in his conversion into Catholicism.
