Join me for an inspiring conversation with author and theologian Dr. Scott Hahn as he shares his remarkable journey from a rebellious teenager to a devoted follower of Jesus. Dr. Hahn recounts his transformative discovery of the Catholic Church through scripture and the writings of the Church Fathers—an experience that challenged his biases, strained friendships, and even tested his marriage. At the heart of this discussion is a profound exploration of the Eucharist, the central focus of the Mass, and its rich foreshadowing in biblical references to the sacrifice of the lamb. Don’t miss this engaging episode that will deepen your scripture study and reveal the powerful story behind one of today’s most influential Catholic thinkers.
