In recent years a growing number of Evangelicals have been quietly accompanying baptized Roman Catholics into a deeper relationship with Christ. In doing so, some of these Evangelicals have abandoned the methods employed by their colleagues and chosen not to attempt to separate their converts from Catholic church structures. It is not that they have attempted to conceal their Protestant identity or doctrinal commitments or have sought official, organizational ties with the Catholic church: rather, they have simply presented themselves as persons whose goal is not to lead people out of the Catholic church, but to assist persons to become, in effect, better Catholics, to come to know Christ personally and follow him obediently.
