Show Notes

We always say that conversion is a possibility for anyone. But it can be tempting to think that there’s no hope for some people.

Dr. Joseph Pearce used to be one of those people. He used to be a white supremacist neo-Nazi, and even spent time in prison.

Now?

He’s one of the top Catholic intellectuals in the world, with works on Lewis, Tolkien, Shakespeare, Belloc, and more! He also has served as an editor for the Augustine Institute, the Imaginative Conservative, and other intellectual publications.

All of this was possible because Dr. Pearce accepted the love and forgiveness of Christ. In this episode, you’ll hear about his conversion and learn:

- What initially attracted him to white supremacy
- How God rescued him from racism
- How to have a cultural identity without being hateful

And more!
