My Take
Scott Hahn interests me less for his titles than for his pivot. A former Protestant minister who converted to Catholicism and then wrote more than fifty books, he embodies the rare courage to interrogate his own deepest convictions and follow them somewhere uncomfortable. That willingness to abandon certainty in pursuit of truth resonates well beyond any single faith. As an apologist he is essentially a master storyteller, taking dense theology and making it land with ordinary people, which is no small skill. Knighted in the Order of the Holy Sepulchre and still teaching in Ohio, he strikes me as a man driven by conviction rather than credentials.
