- Scott Hahn's personal library has to be one of the biggest, most impressive libraries in existence. I didn't know what to expect, but, just, wow.

Welp. Scott's found out how many people have viewed this video. He thinks you should all be reading instead.
I just want that library to be my new home. I just want to live there
Scott, although being slightly overweight, is a very intelligent and passionate man
Tell Scott I'll get right on it if he'll invite me to check out a few books ;)
@David Ortiz everything
@@aggelos8256 Haha, bro what?
When he mentioned in Rome Sweet Home that he spent hours everyday reading books on Catholic theology before converting, I can see he definitely was not kidding...
Yes! Love that book. This is the kind of office he was hunkered down in for hours every night trying to convince himself to stay Protestant but learning more and more until finally coming home to the Catholic church ⛪🙌💛
@@tony1685 that's your opinion! I'm not looking to debate it. Scott chose Catholicism and he's happy in the one true church🙌
@@tony1685 If you don’t have anything nice to say, then please don’t say anything at all.
@@tony1685 What Protestants don't read books outside the Bible? Also if he Bible was perfectly clear why are there hundreds of Protestant Denominations who all say they are "Bible Alone" but come to wildly different conclusions? Why do we need teachers to convey the faith.
St. Peter in this letter warned about the results of reading Scripture sithout the guidance of the Church when he said "There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures" (2 Peter 3:16)
That's why we see that we need an interpretive body and not our own personal opinions so we should humble ourselves like Philip does to the Ethiopian in the Book of Acts:
"So Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” And he said, “*How can I, unless some one guides me* ?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him" (Acts 8:30-31)
I converted reading the New Testament and you figured out the big gap between the apostolic Church and the church of Rome
Only one word FANTASTIC!
Wow now that's a man of wisdom God bless Scott Hahn 🙏🏼💯
Matt trying to find a St Thomas Aquinas relic is my fav part😂😂🥰
You should check out Steve Ray's library too. He has the most rabidly anti-Catholic book collection..... Which actually turned against him eventually...
My idea of heaven on earth.
I wonder who has a bigger library or collection, Dr. Scott Hahn or Dr. Rick Warren?
Now we know what happened to the Library of Alexandria.
Lol
Funny
Hahahhahaha ... this is a good one. Dead laughing
And the House of Wisdom of Baghdad. Don't forget that.
Hahah
Feels like two grandchildren visiting grandpa's candystore. Love it.
I like how you guys are speaking in hushed tones even though you’re in a personal library and you’re the only ones in there.
In between religious debates and people just picking up their jaws from the floor... This is the best comment.
shhhh the books are sleeping
I was kind of in a bad mood, but seeing Scott and his library is just uplifting.
Me this very second
Same two years later
The power of a library, strangely therapeutic…😊
As a person who loves books- this looks like a dream come true.
same here!
Exactly!
I could spend days in there just pouring over all those books 😆
I find myself listening to rhe podcast, "Behind The Bookshelves ". I ❤️ books.
Book lovers paradise.
I think Scott will be Patron Saint of Librarians!
yes!
I think St. Jerome and St. Thomas Aquinas are also patron Saints for Librarians if I’m not mistaken lol
Estoy de acuerdo
@David Ortiz yea I knew that 👍🏼👍🏼
It St. Jerome the patron saint of librarians
I love how it’s not even the first minute and Matt is alr being awkward in the background 😂😂
The cool thing about Dr. Hahn is if you asked him where to start he would say the Bible..
@David Ortiz Actually the Bible leads to/testify about Jesus Christ.
And yet he embraced a faith which holds to an ineffectual sacrifice. He should’ve read more of that Bible.
@@theocratickingdom30 I am a Catholic and I will always be. I primarily watch Catholic content but I do follow some Protestant content producers. I enjoy their enthusiasm for sharing Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I believe you all are still brothers in Christ. thanks for your concern for Dr. Hahn’s soul and by extension mine.
@@jiminycricket1593 You can believe Protestants are brothers in Christ, but you do know the CC teaches no salvation outside of it?
@@theocratickingdom30 watch the interview of his conversion on Pints with Aquinas, you'll see his train of thought
This is bigger than my local library
Mine too!
This is several times bigger than my local library.
I had that exact same thought
In my opinion, and i went there, its bigger than Catholic U's library.
As a protestant, it's hard for me to see a man's library of that size, and think "Nah, that guy is wrong - I'm right"....
It's very simple, head knowledge does not equate to much in the sight of God. All the wisdom of earth compares to nothing. Catholicism preaches a false works based gospel. Jesus said "it is finished" yet catholics think it's not finished and that their sins need to be paid for in purgatory. It isn't finished, right.. They preach a false gospel that can't save and fully atone for someone. Don't let books fool you. This man prays to saints. We pray to God. Or at least, I hope you do.
Hi there! Although I agree that reading and researching doesn't mean you know everything or are always correct Scott Hahn was a protestant and wanted nothing to do with Catholicism but his story is a testament to intellect and openness to the Holy Spirit. Also as a Catholic I want to clarify that, just as we ask people on earth to pray for us we ask those who have gone before us to lift our prayers to God. God Bless💛
As a Catholic that's kind of how I feel about Mike Licona. Knowing as much as he knows about the early Church, how isn't he Catholic?
Now that’s funny!
@@TheHeartOfTheHour1 What do you mean "their sins need to be paid for in Hell" ? I'm not Catholic but I'm pretty sure no Catholic believes that. Also as Allison said above, there is nothing wrong with praying to Saints, this in no way negates Jesus being the one mediator being God and man. We ask our fellow Christians to pray for us all the time so why not ask those who are in heaven? They are as much a part of the Body of Christ as we are. Again I'm not Catholic but people really shouldn't misrepresent what they actually believe.
I knew in Rome Sweet Home he talked about getting thousands of books, but WOW I still did not expect that. I wonder how many of them he has read...
Cameron if you could just let Matt know that I appreciated his Ghostbusters joke, just so he doesn't feel so bad that no one laughed
Unfortunately, Matts humour is massively undervalued :(
I’ve been to Steubenville University on two Deacon and Priests conferences, in the past of course. I turn 90 on 4April. Say a prayer for me please.
God bless you.
Only Catholics know the power of St Anthony when you are looking for something that is lost! Never fails!
Hearing his story made me all giddy, I had to stand and do a happy dance for them XD
That got mee😂😂
That's true, I have experienced lost some important things and through St. Anthony's intercession, I got it back. It happened two times.
I'm blown away! Trying to get my own library started, have only a few hundred books though, not a few million!
I'm at around 200. That one blew me away.
I've got 2 plastic bags full. Lol.
@@michaellawlor5625 Plastic bags can be quite big.
Steve Ray said he has 2000. Books just in his kitchen
Excited for the new Pints with Aquinas studio!!!!
If this his his library, his home must be huge. But, a large house for a large family.
Its the former Steubenville Bishop's house and the library was originally built as the Bishops indoor pool
@@kylebliss8497 what if there is an infinite causal chain of creators?
Then there is no creator and there is no creation.
@@killianmiller6107 Uncaused things just happen in daily life. No meaning only death. Like a useless machine, you turn it on and a hand pops out of a black box and turns it off.
@Melancholy Soldier yeah it's almost as if they believe in magic or a supernatural consciousness.
There are more books in Scott Hahn’s house than in my university 😂
St. Anthony has to pray a lot to help find a book there 😂
Hi. Librarian here. Can I please manage that library?? I'll catalog and process the books accordingly! 😍😍😍
You'd fortunate.
Now, is it fair to guess that... he must have a software to...? well, now I'm not sure. I think a software is needed if he lends books (which I don't think so), and the labeling is already given by the Library of the Congress. Does he need a librarian software?
Literally had the same thought!
I love it that it was his wife that first had the "vision" of his library in that garage and even drew out plans.
Oh boy, you’re in danger of becoming Catholic now! In anticipation of that, I’d like to extend to you a hearty welcome home!
Let's pray for that brother
@@tony1685 It's the infallible church that has the authority to deem someone a heretic, not a fallible individual like you.
@@tony1685 No you cannot be able to do that with your fallible knowledge of the Bible. The church - not you - is the pillar and foundation of truth. To say the church is wrong is to reject God's truth. If you disagree with the church, you are ipso facto wrong. Church members can argue among themselves and others outside the church, but once the church speaks it's final. Why? Again, it's because the Bible says the church is the final arbiter, not you tony my friend.
@@tony1685 You are still missing the point. There is the infallible word of God, and then there is your understanding/interpretation of the word of God. There is no problem with the former, the latter is where our disagreement is. You quote Bible verses and you go ahead to claim that your understanding of these verses is correct and the Catholic Church's understanding is incorrect. But what you've continuously failed to realize is that these verses, read in context with other related verses, actually are in harmony with the Catholic interpretation. And I have read the entire Bible many times over on my own. The Catholic Church completes the whole Bible every 3 year cycle. If you go to Catholic Mass everyday for say 30 years, you would have read the entire Bible 30/3 = 10 times total.
To reiterate, no single letter in the Bible is being questioned here, instead I'm questioning your understanding of the Bible. Do you get the point now? I'm the one to throw Bible verses at you, not the other way round, because I have the infallible Apostolic Church founded by Christ himself to guide me, while you have the fallible Martin Luther "church" or the "church" you founded yourself to guide you.
If we both disagree on what a Gospel verse says, we should go to the church that wrote the Gospels and canonized the Bible. The Bible came from the church. There was no Bible until about 4th century AD. Only one church - the Catholic Church - existed then. Apart from the Christians mentioned in the Bible, you cannot name one Christian from first century AD to 1500 AD who is not Catholic, can you?
Praying...
Looks like he read his way into the Catholic church! Literally...
When I was seven I wanted to be a librarian so I started a little library in my room, it was made up of one shelf and I had all of my books in there (around 50) and I gave all of my siblings and both of my parents library cards so they could check out my books. I loved it, but I would have loved to have Hahn's library too, haha!
Haha, that's so cute! Something happened to me, my friends and I opened a sort of our own library where I supplied 90% of everything & we had a library card as well & some didn't return 25% of my books!
That's so sweet
@@nenabunena bummer :( I hope you had fun though
I did too! My friends would check them out
not even libraries have that many books
true
You show someone your massive library but they still ask "But who created God?"
Why is it a bad question ? Because God is defined as an eternal being ?
@David Ortiz Well it depends if he exists or not.
@@veganworldorder9394 He necessarily exists because you do-even if nothing else you perceive exists. You know with certainty you exist! Even if you doubt it, you’ve betrayed that thought by your awareness of it! Because you exist, it’s impossible for NOTHING to have caused you, since you can’t get something from nothing. Therefore an Existence before you must exist. For you to ponder anything and have self awareness- that existence which brought you into being has to also be intelligent with a will. It’s also necessary by definition, that Existence is actualized always and everywhere infinitely-unmade & without limit-or else it’s NOT Existence.
@@veganworldorder9394 "It depends if he exists or not".
Yes, you're right but still asking the question "who created God" shows lack of understanding of what theists mean by God.
If a god of a religion was created by something or someone that something or someone would be the "real" and only God.
So there either is or there isn't an ultimate being. If there is (as theists claim) we call it God.
It does not make sense to ask who created something e.g. (god) if that something (god) is not an ultimate being (God).
So the problem with "who created God" is not that it questions the existence of God (which is fine) but it doesn't even understand it.
If there is no ultimate being, we need to accept two logical possibilities:
1) There is an infinite chain of causes which many philosophers showed that there cannot be an ACTUAL regress of causes.
2) Or we violate the principle of casualty but then we accept that for example a rabbit coming into existence in front of us does not need an explanation.
@@garymanz5919 Calm down on the non sequitur bro.
"He necessarily exists because you do" Why ?
For you to ponder anything and have self awarenews- that existence which brought you into being has to also be intelligent with a will." Why ?
"It's also necessary by definition, that Existence is actualized always and everywhere infinitely-unmade and without limit or else it is not existence" why ?
When the internet goes down, Scott has us covered!
I had the joy and blessing of being Dr. Scott Hahn’s student in college in 1992. I had him for Principles of Biblical Studies 1 and 2. What a blessing. For a whole year he was my Bible teacher. The favorite class of my entire life. What a blessing.
So awesome you got to hang out with Scott and Matt! What a library!
Scott Hahn is an absolute LEGEND. This is incredible. Book collection GOALS. ✨📚📖
I've just finished reading Rome sweet Home!
I just got it, can´t wait!
@M J LOL. No. Sola Dei.
This dude read himself out of Protestantism into Catholicism. Read his book Rome Sweet Home.
I knew he had a very big library but never seen pictures of it. Thanks
hi Cameron, you can ask Scott Hahn to take you to Eucharistic Adoration. You will be surprised.
I thought the first room you were in was the library... and then you walked into the LIBRARY! Wow.
It’s the energizer bunny library. It just keeps going, and going, and going....
You’re a lucky man to experience Scott Hahn’s library! And I always love a good story about the intercession of St. Anthony finding a lost item!
Intercession of st Anthony ?
Really ? come on.. There is only ONE mediator, One God, Only One who hears and answers all omniscient.. JESUS!!!
@@fabiotuan5206 well then why would you ask a friend or family member to pray for you? That sounds kinda silly if you don’t think God will hear their prayers. And what better person to ask for intercession than someone who is already in Heaven with Jesus!
@@fabiotuan5206 I do hope to hear your response. Please educate me on this viewpoint.
@@beckymccarty2451
Well, in regard to praying for someone or them praying for you in Jesus name is scriptural! Jesus is omnipresent/ omniscient. The saints are in heaven yes! They are in the eternal state of euphoria, joy, peace, happiness etc! 1. If they heard our prayers and requests then that would make them omnipresent
Only God is omnipresent/ omniscient. 2. If they heard our prayers, pain, grief, sorrow etc then they wouldn't be experiencing heaven's eternal happiness anymore!
Again, a contradiction to what it states in the scriptures.
@@beckymccarty2451
Having said that catholics are wonderful brothers/ sisters, we just differ in some areas
That’s massive! Now I understand that it’s also for students and degree candidates. Awesome. God bless Dr. Hahn!
You're hanging with all the cool catholics now!!!
God bless Scott Hahn.
Im jealous of scott hahn and now I want to live in his library
That's unbelievable. I don't believe it.
Cameron, are those the books that he had read?
I would have 0 idea of where to even start
@Vera I think Scott mentioned that he used the Library of Congress notation. The Dewey decimal system has been gone for ages.
I mean, in terms of where to start reading
i would be honored if someone calls me a book nerd, if i own a library like this
Me at 0:38 - 1:33: that library is huge!
Me at 1:34 : ........................................................................................................................
Yep this was one of the few reasons for sure why he converted to the RC church… meeting Scott Hahn ❤ welcome home buddy!
Anyone else get oddly intimidated seeing a bunch of books? I wouldn't know where to start lol
This is what I am interested in
Evemthough Capturing Christianity isn't a Catholic, he treat a doctor of Catholic as a very very friend
Not likely some cults here in the Philippines, they spread hatred and idiot ideas
Guys, just because Cameron visited Scott Hahn's impressive library doesn't mean he is going to become Catholic. If you went and saw that _______ protestant apologist had a library like this, doesn't mean protestantism is necessarily true. Same with Catholicism. Coming from a Catholic.
Lets just be honest, none of its true so none of it matters.
Here after Cameron becomes Catholic.
Please send me a book. I am a Theology student from Ethiopia🇪🇹. And i don't have enough sources. Please help me?🙏
The bible is enough sir. All these at times will tend to confuse you. A 500 pg book on Mary and Joseph and you ask yourself, "who gave these catholic authors so much info, when we literally have a few paragraphs about them in the bible. Made up lies
And I thought I had a big library! Comparatively, I have one little shelf with 3 books. 😂
That was funny ...literally :-D
@@thehandofjibreel8756 my friends tell me I live in a library, ....nope
xD
1:32 is that an image of Our Lady Aparecida? Wow, never thought I'd see this outside of Brazil.
What’s it like to have the greatest hair on RUclips?
I think this makes people think twice before starting a debate with Dr.Scott Hahn 😨😥🤩🤩🤩🤩
He promotes marianology
@@fabiotuan5206 Don’t worry he’ll never love Mary more then Jesus. 😳
@@victorialopez3691
He elevates mary to a goddess level
Saints and mary are in heaven.
Only our Lord is omnipresent/ omniscient and worthy of praise!
LOL the St Anthony statue in the middle of all that. Not so you can find a book-they seem very well organized. It’s so you can find your way out.
this library needs a full time librarian (or librarians) to man it!
Ok, you’re a cool guy Cameron. But I fear by this tour you have led many of us Catholics into the sin of envy.
matt is playing 'where's waldo' with Cameron
This is amazing! People dream of fancy cars, jewelry and designer clothing but for me one of my goals in life is to have a dedicated library/study room in my home. One day! Thanks a lot for this tour. Truly remarkable!
Every youtube christian does their videos in front of their little book shelf... Scott should have a drone pan out during a stream to show how entire library so that others get intimidated, size matters.
oh man!! i can spent hours there!! 🤣 reading JESUS books ❤
When they say apologists have never read a book
Literally never heard anyone say that, lol.
🤣 lol
@@CapturingChristianity I've heard the statement, "Christians haven't read a book, they haven't even read the Bible", by some Athiests and I find it funny they assume we're ignorant, also because Christian apologists are a subset of Christians then it could be extrapolated that apologists have never read a book. My joke use logic to extrapolate a conclusion that no one would purposefully state, but is funny when you think about it.
Love that he gives people access to it. The first minute I kept wondering if he was the only one who gets to read in there. If I had a collection like that it would be my greatest joy to allow people access to it. Priests and scholars take sabbatical and study in there? Amazing. That must bring him great happiness having such amazing resource and being able to share it. I'm sure that dramatically increases it's value in his eyes. Memories of scholars and students pouring over research in his private library... I love having a digital library, especially for the efficiency and speed it brings to study but I see the beauty and majesty of having ACTUAL library.
Is this the Scott Hahn who wrote a book on covenants?
Yes
Dr. Hahn, where do you get your sources? *points*
As a person who loves to be in libraries, this is absolutely amazing. I just learned about LC numbers last week and have started cataloguing my own books. Libib looks fine, but I'm considering Evergreen ILS. Apparently, Georgia's library system uses it. I hope to one day have a library just as beautiful as this and maybe be able to visit the LoC.
Crazy cool
Praise God! 🥳🥳🥳 Welcome home, Cam!💗💗💗
Thank you for sharing this clip with us. It's great to see the three of you! 💗💗💗 I really think Dr. Scott Hanh looks like Padre Pio. 😇😇😇
Prayers and love to you and your families! 💗💗💗😇😇😇
1:27 I mean this is literally a library...
No, this is actually the annex..
Curious how one can meet someone and afterwards not pronounce their name correctly. Scott Hahn (Hahn rhymes with on).
Find out where the crates are stacked, the ark of the covenant is probably there 😂
This is wonderland.
How has Cameron Bertuzzi met Scott Hahn and yet remains Protestant?
It's only been a day. Give it time to stew 😉
That’s the power of the Gospel, my brother! It’s hard to go back to putting faith into anything besides the completed work of Christ, even to a church that makes claims as bold as Rome does.
@@TheRoark do some history, read the Didache. We're first century Christians, mate. You're 1500 years too late, at the absolute earliest.
@@renjithjoseph7135 hey man, thanks for the reply! I have read the Didache, which part talks about salvation coming from your works? Or at least your work increasing the amount you are justified? It’s also late where I am so I may not reply for a while, but I will look into it
@@TheRoark where does Catholicism say that? Because we don't. Justified by grace, a gift of God. No human sinner can be justify himself. But we can reject that freely given grace or accept it, by our own free will. "Works of the law" (Gal 2) are not equivalent to good works that Catholicism promotes.
There's only one place in the Bible with the words "faith alone" and that's James 2.
did not expect this whaat
New life goal... when I can finally get a place of my own ;-)
2000 years of the body of Jesus Christ! 🎉🎉🎉
I was BLOWN AWAY
Guys, even if we disagree with Scott, it's undeniable that the man studied the subject a lot! Besides, he has probably much more arguments and answers to our objections, that favor Catholicism.
So please, just be respectful and try to understand his points before attacking him, without even listening to what he has to say.
This is small penance for a man who has managed to single-handedly keep me in debt-bondage, by writing so many books. When I am ready to do away with my last I.OU. he goes and writes another book. Will no one rid me of this turbulent scribe?
King Henry lol
If I’m in your place I wouldn’t leave. They’d have to drag me out or shoot me or something.
I'm glad you got to go to Scott Hahn's house. I think it's great you've been in Steubenville, period.
This would be like going to Disney Land for me
I got interrupted halfway in with Tai Lopez showing off his books. Like step aside for a real library!
Up to 1:30 - Cool, I'd love to have a library like that one day
After 1:40 - Wait...... what?
You should have stacked some random books from the floor up and said: "symmetrical book stacking, just like the Philadelphia mass disturbance of 1947."
Nice one Frank👍
I would spend so much time in this garage, just sitting there gives me warm and cozy wibes
Has he read every single one of those books?! 😳 thats an amazing library! ♥️♥️♥️
I wish all people read like him so they can find the truth been Catholic wwooww
It looks like my university library
Oh my gosh, I love that man! (In a holy and non-commandment-breaking kind of way!)
I think Mr. Capturing Christianity may be on his conversion journey to the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. 😭🙏🏼💕
He's very genuine and open to truth, and he seems VERY attracted to Catholicism. My dad once told me, "Once you know the truth, you can't go back." Either way, I'll keep him in my prayers. God bless, sir!
Catholism looks attractive on the surface, but it's filled with flawed teachings and traditions
