Tom Brittain
Holiness in the ordinary.
A Thomas Aquinas College–formed revert, teacher of thirty years, and father of eleven — helping Catholics know, live, and hand on the faith.
“Tom Brittain has energetically and wisely engaged in the Church’s mission of evangelization as a husband, father, teacher, and coach… Aware that Jesus continues to call and send forth, I rejoice that, now, the Holy Spirit is drawing forth leaders like Tom Brittain.” — Most Rev. Thomas J. Olmsted, Bishop Emeritus of Phoenix
Who is Tom
From the great books, all the way home.
Tom Brittain lost his faith at nineteen and spent seven years as an ardent, anti‑Catholic Protestant — until a love of the great books led him to Thomas Aquinas College, and back to the Catholic Church. His wife followed; their children were received soon after.
Three decades a Catholic teacher and a father of eleven, Tom now devotes himself full‑time to what he treasures most: speaking about the Catholic faith — with a rare blend of intellectual depth, disarming humility, and the witness of a big, joyful, faithful family.
