In this episode of The Road to Emmaus, Scott Hahn is joined by Jeremiah Bannister, host of The Paleocrat Diaries and author of the book She Danced Me a Story.

Jeremiah shares his wild spiritual and theological journey, giving us an intimate glimpse into his return home into the arms of our heavenly Father.

In their conversation, you’ll discover: why Catholicism is the “irresistible conclusion” to the search for the “pure Church,” how a child’s persistent questioning forced him to grapple with the question of God, and the real social, psychological, and emotional cost of becoming Catholic.

Through Jeremiah's story, you’ll see how God, in His providence, directs the story of your own life.
