Confessions of a Convert

More about the book

The narrative explores Robert Hugh Benson's transformative journey from Anglicanism to Catholicism, reflecting on his upbringing in a theologically rigid environment as the son of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Initially a faithful yet uncritical Anglican, Benson's quest for a deeper spiritual connection unfolds through moments of poetic inspiration and profound sermons. His shift towards Catholicism signifies a search for a more personal relationship with God, ultimately leading him to embrace the "sunlight of Eternal Truth" as a Catholic priest.
