From Atheism to Faith: A Transformative Journey

The fire of Notre Dame in Paris seemed to embody the decline of Catholicism in France. However, just as the cathedral has risen from the ashes, so too has the Catholic church with record numbers of adults baptised in the past 2 years.

As Pope Leo XIV heralds a new era for Catholicism, Justin speaks to converts, evangelists and clergy about a surprising revival taking place among young people. Bishop Robert Barron, Tony Wilson, Rusty Reno, Frank Skinner, Rob Schneider, Paul Kingsnorth & Tom Holland contribute. Justin also hears the story of Mark Baldwin's journey from atheism to Catholicism.
