"Most of us converts can speak of a long pursuit by the Hound of Heaven. But only Ian Murphy can begin his story with a helicopter chase. And the plot only gets stranger and more exciting from there. This is one of those few religious autobiographies that could just as well be an action movie."
— Scott Hahn, from the Foreword; Author, Rome Sweet Home: Our Journey to Catholicism

"Once again the power of stories, especially stories of conversion, not only give witness to the life-changing work of God's grace, but also communicate the life-changing reasonableness of our Catholic faith."
— Marcus Grodi, EWTN Host, The Journey Home; Author, Life from Our Land

"Ian Murphy is a master storyteller. Clashing, uplifting, and tinged with joy, Dying to Live is a tale about an ordinary man in God's extraordinary grace, an offering not to be missed."
— Tyler Blanski, Author, An Immovable Feast

"As one who has traveled the seemingly impossible journey from Baptist to Catholic, I could feel the fear and trembling that Ian Murphy experienced on his adventure. And his dramatic story is indeed an adventure, which he tells with great wit and poignancy."
— Dale Ahlquist, President, American Chesterton Society

"This is a wild roller-coaster of a conversion story. It's a thrill to follow Murphy from principled agnosticism to evangelicalism to celebrity to a Baptist pastorate. But then comes the steepest hill of all, when he realizes he cannot deny the claims of the Catholic Church."
— Mike Aquilina, Author, The Fathers of the Church 

"When I learned of a young man who was raised Protestant and became a Protestant pastor—and subsequently converted to Catholicism, I was very intrigued. Ian is a man of strong conviction who is not shy about expressing what he believes.  His book will convince you of his genuine love for the Savior."
— John Dee Varner, Christian Broadcaster
