About Dale Ahlquist
Dr. Ahquist is the president of the American Chesterton Society; publisher of Gilbert Magazine; popular speaker at national and international conferences; creator & host of the EWTN series “G.K. Chesterton – The Apostle of Common Sense”; co-founder of Chesterton Academy; and Senior Fellow of the Chesterton Library in Oxford. He has written, edited, or contributed to more than fifteen books on G. K. Chesterton,, including The Apostle of Common Sense and The Complete Thinker. He is considered one of the leading Chesterton scholars in the world.
Dr. Ahlquist is an Evangelical convert to Catholicism. Reading G. K. Chesterton’s The Everlasting Man during his honeymoon in Rome profoundly changed his life and inevitably led to research of the Early Church Fathers and the history of the Catholic Church. Systematically, Dr. Ahlquist began to see his point-by-point objections to Catholicism wither away.
