This work explores the life, theological contributions, and enduring legacy of Dr. Scott Hahn, a prominent Catholic biblical scholar, theologian, and convert from Presbyterianism. It provides an in-depth analysis of Hahn's theological journey, tracing his intellectual and spiritual pilgrimage from Protestantism to Catholicism and examining the significant milestones that shaped his vocation as a teacher, author, and evangelist. Central to Hahn's theology is the concept of covenanta sacred family bond instituted by God that structures the entirety of salvation history. Hahn's work demonstrates how this covenantal framework illuminates the unity between the Old and New Testaments and reinforces the sacramental nature of Christian worship.
Key themes explored in this study include Hahn's biblical typology, his defense of Catholic doctrines such as the Eucharist and Marian theology, and his interpretation of the liturgy as an earthly participation in the heavenly worship. Special attention is given to Hahn's interpretation of the Book of Revelation as a vision of the Eucharistic liturgy and his portrayal of the Mass as the fulfillment of salvation history. Hahn's public ministryexemplified in his public speaking engagements, theological conferences, and media outreachhas made Catholic biblical theology accessible to a global audience, fostering greater biblical literacy and devotion to the sacraments.
This work also addresses Hahn's contributions to the New Evangelization, as he has leveraged modern media platforms to reach Catholics, Protestants, and seekers. His establishment of the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology has further institutionalized his mission, creating resources for scholars, clergy, and laypeople to deepen their engagement with Scripture. His bestselling books, including Rome Sweet Home, The Lamb's Supper, and A Father Who Keeps His Promises, have played a central role in Catholic catechesis and apologetics, inspiring conversions and fostering ecumenical dialogue.
Finally, the study considers the historical and theological context of Hahn's work, examining its alignment with the vision of the Second Vatican Council and its contribution to the renewal of Catholic theology and liturgical life. Hahn's legacy is presented as one of intellectual rigor, pastoral care, and evangelical zeal, offering a blueprint for theological engagement that remains relevant in the face of contemporary cultural and religious challenges. This work concludes by affirming Hahn's enduring influence on the Church's mission to form disciples, strengthen families, and proclaim the gospel to a world in need of truth, grace, and salvation.
