A Challenge and an Opportunity: Handing on Faith to the Young
Dr RJ Snell

The fastest growing religious group in the United States is “the Nones,” those who are atheist, agnostic, or belonging to no particular religious tradition. Many of the “Nones” were baptized as Catholics. There is no formula to guarantee our children will remain practicing Catholics, no “hack” to make the handing on of faith simple and certain, but this challenge provides all Catholics, whether parents or not, the opportunity to think how to engage and teach our young, presenting them a vision of faith and holiness that is life-giving and attractive.

R. J. Snell is Editor-in-Chief of Public Discourse, Director of Academic Programs at the Witherspoon Institute, and a director of the Aquinas Institute for Catholic Life at Princeton University. He is currently a visiting instructor in the department of politics at Princeton. Previously, he was a tenured full-professor of philosophy at Eastern University and the Templeton Honors College. Snell is the author of Lost in the Chaos: Immanence, Despair, Hope (Angelico, 2023).  He and his family reside in the Princeton area.
