279: Typology, Conversion, and the Catholic Imagination (w/ Emily Chapman)

The Cordial Catholic

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by celebrated Catholic author and convert (or, revert) to the Catholic faith Emily Stimpson Chapman to talk about all things Catholic.
We dig into her own conversion story as someone who was raised Catholic during the "Father Ted in leotards" era of post-Vatican II Catholicism, her rediscovering Christianity in Protestant denominations while working in Washington, DC, and her eventual wrestling and return to the Catholic faith.
We also discuss the sacraments, the Catholic imagination, and becoming Catholic in a time of scandal.
All of this and more this week on the show.
Check out all of Emily Chapman and Scott Hahn's wonderful children's books here.
For more from Emily Chapman visit her website and be sure to find her podcast The Visitation Sessions everywhere podcasts are found.
