About

Return to Rome is the weblog of Francis J. Beckwith, a Catholic philosophy professor who teaches at Baylor, the world’s largest Baptist university. This blog takes its name from his book, Return to Rome: Confessions of an Evangelical Catholic (Brazos Press, 2009), in which he provides an account of his 30-year journey from cradle Catholic to Evangelical and then back to Catholicism in 2007.

The blog Return to Rome is a place in which Professor Beckwith writes on a variety of issues and topics that often overlap and intersect politics, culture, religion, and the academic world.
