Abigail Favale: Entering the Church—and then converting to the Faith
Friday Sep 13, 2024
Friday Sep 13, 2024
There are multiple ways in which Abigail Favale’s conversion to Catholicism may be seen as unlikely. First as an ex-Evangelical, then as a feminist academic, Favale had built a worldview—and career—on the rejection of “patriarchy” and on the promotion of progressive causes. How could she enter a Church known for male-only leadership, and for rigorous opposition to contraception and abortion?
In this episode, host Andrew Petiprin speaks with Favale about her conversion—which in many ways began after she had entered the Catholic Church and began to explore its rich teachings and traditions in earnest.
Her conversion memoir, “Into the Deep: An Unlikely Catholic Conversion,” is available now at Ignatius.com, as is her bestselling book “The Genesis of Gender: A Christian Theory.”
