From atheist, to husband, to priest, Fr. Eric Johansen’s spiritual journey has been marked by joy and grief. After he was ordained a priest on June 12, 2015 he looked forward to walking with people on their own spiritual journey. 
  

​“It’s exciting, nerve-wracking. I don’t feel like we’re ever worthy, but God’s plans are perfect,” said Fr. Johansen, who was one of five seminarians of the Diocese of Nashville to be ordained at 10:30 a.m. Friday, June 12, 2015 at the Cathedral of the Incarnation. “I’m ready. I’m excited about it.”
