Most of the former atheists in this book had investigated religion's claims to truth, rejected them--and were shocked to then find themselves turning to faith. Some of these stories come from:
- A university professor unexpectedly attracted to the faith when a student described her retreat at a monastery.
- A young woman impressed by a colleague's Mass attendance: "I wanted to find her ridiculous, but quite unexpectedly, I felt like the ridiculous one."
- A Polish immigrant who once shared communism's disdain for religion.
These seekers ended up someplace they never intended to go--the Catholic Church--and yet went there and found that they were home.
