Why are more people converting to Catholicism? Why are atheists, agnostics, Protestants, and even members of Gen Z finding their way into the Catholic Church? Dr. Scott Hahn reflects on one of the most surprising developments in modern Christianity: the growing number of converts entering the Catholic Church despite decades of secularisation and religious decline. Drawing on his own conversion story from evangelical Protestantism to Catholicism, Hahn explores what is driving a new generation of truth-seekers toward the Catholic faith.

Hahn discusses the changing landscape of conversion over the past forty years. In the 1990s, many converts to Catholicism came from evangelical, Protestant, Pentecostal, and non-denominational Christian backgrounds. Today, however, he is seeing a different trend emerge. Increasingly, atheists, agnostics, secular professionals, university students, and young adults with little or no religious background are discovering Catholicism for the first time.
The conversation explores the signs of Catholic revival in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the United States, including the growing number of adult converts, the influence of podcasts and social media, and the renewed interest in faith among Gen Z. Hahn explains why the collapse of the New Atheism movement has left many searching for deeper answers about truth, meaning, purpose, the soul, and the human person.
Drawing on Scripture, Church history, and his decades of experience working with converts, Hahn offers insights into why so many people are reconsidering Christianity and finding their way to the Catholic Church. He also reflects on the role of Catholic apologetics, evangelisation, and authentic conversations in helping people move from scepticism to faith.
