Slow Dawning: From Unbelief to Belief

This book is a most readable account of a conversion to the faith, written by the convert herself. But it has a deeper purpose than to be an entertaining narrative.

Unlike most converts, this production of American university education started, not from Judaism, Anglicanism, or some form of Protestantism, but from total unbelief.

During her many years of instruction, reading, and study, she surmounted a formidable array of obstacles, from belief in God to belief in purgatory. In gratitude for the final triumph of grace, she has written this account to smooth the way for others who are detained by the same difficulties.

In a special way, the reading of Slow Dawning will be of profit to many priests, for it will open their eyes to the deep-seated intellectual attitudes of countless educated non-Catholics who are earnest seekers after truth. No priest will read this book without becoming more patient and considerate toward those outside the fold and especially toward prospective converts.
