Driving back to his Marine Corps base<\/span> in North Carolina alone after attending his grandmother\u2019s funeral, a despondent J. D. Vance was steering through Virginia\u2019s Appalachian Mountains when a combination of slippery roads and bad luck sent his car hurtling toward a guardrail. What came next, he describes as an almost \u201csupernatural experience.\u201d Instead of crashing through the guardrail and sliding off the mountain, the car, he says, mysteriously stopped.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven during my later years as a strident atheist, the experience sat there inconveniently in the back of my mind,\u201d Vance writes in his new book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith<\/i>. \u201cIt was as if it existed to annoy me, to challenge the confidence I had in the laws of the universe and the idea that I sat firmly\u2014and alone\u2014in life\u2019s driver\u2019s seat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Communion<\/i>, a copy of which I obtained in advance of its release tomorrow, reads as a sequel to Vance\u2019s first book, Hillbilly Elegy<\/i>. It is billed as a conversion narrative, a reflection on Vance\u2019s 2019 embrace of Catholicism. In an interview, Vance told me that he believes it is appropriate for political leaders \u201cto talk about what influences them, what motivates them, what inspires them.\u201d He added that there is a certain \u201chumility and grace\u201d required of political leaders and said it was his aim to project those things in the book.<\/p>\n

A memoir is a rite of passage for anyone contemplating a run for president. Vance\u2019s first book catapulted him to prominence with its portrait of working-class white America. In the decade since it was published, however, much has changed\u2014both for the country and for Vance.<\/p>\n

Communion<\/i> also tells the story of Vance\u2019s other<\/i> conversion: from ardent Never Trumper to Donald Trump\u2019s vice president, a shift that he argues was driven not by ambition but by the belief that Trump had proved himself an effective president. Not that he expects everyone to believe that. \u201cTo my critics, it was a politically cynical maneuver to gain political power. I doubt I\u2019ll ever change their minds,\u201d he writes.<\/p>\n

Much of the book is a rumination on matters ethical and spiritual\u2014a perhaps not-so-subtle way to show how he\u2019s different from the man currently in the White House, whose office Vance is widely expected to seek two years from now. Although the book doesn\u2019t directly address whether the vice president intends to run in 2028, it offers some clues, including a notably softer tone than Vance has frequently employed when doing digital battle with opponents on social media. And the man whom White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles dubbed a \u201cconspiracy theorist\u201d is not much in evidence.<\/p>\n

But Vance does venture beyond his own faith journey to offer commentary on the spiritual health of the country, much of it in line with diagnoses popular among the religious right. He describes America as a nation that has lost its Christian foundations, and he calls Christianity \u201cAmerica\u2019s creed\u201d while allowing that one doesn\u2019t have to be Christian to be an American. Both political parties, he writes, are \u201cguilty of casting aside the Christian inheritance of our civilization.\u201d This, he adds, has had an impact on issues such as marriage rates and population: \u201cOur abandonment of Christian culture has coincided with an apparent decline in our collective will to live.\u201d<\/p>\n

I told him that I noticed a tonal difference between what he writes in the book and what he\u2019s projected to the world, especially in some of his hyper-partisan posts on social media. Even compared with the first book, he curses less in this one. Vance told me he\u2019s trying to reduce his use of profanity. Is that, I asked, an effort to appeal to a broader group of voters? \u201cI definitely curse like a sailor,\u201d he responded, sidestepping the question while noting that his habit is not ideal with young kids at home and a wife who\u2019d prefer fewer obscenities. \u201cI\u2019ve tried to cut back on that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The book traces Vance\u2019s path from religious drift <\/span>and skepticism of faith during his younger years to his eventual embrace of Catholicism. He writes of an upbringing in which faith was deep-rooted, but also untethered from the Church. \u201cOur family attended church very rarely,\u201d he writes. \u201cOur faith was amorphous, tied to family and oral traditions and not to institutional orthodoxy.\u201d Many of his foundational religious memories center on his grandmother, whom he calls Mamaw and who largely raised Vance. He describes her religion as unconventional. \u201cShe loved to say the f-word, and when she died she owned nineteen loaded handguns,\u201d he writes of the woman who is at the heart of Hillbilly Elegy<\/i>. \u201cMamaw\u2019s God suited her: loving and forgiving, but tough, demanding, and possibly packing.\u201d<\/p>\n

At one point, Vance acknowledges that his grandmother believed abortion should be legal and felt that the government should stay out of a woman\u2019s business\u2014a striking contrast to his own self-described \u201c100 percent pro-life\u201d views, which have shifted in their specifics over time. Vance describes over the course of his childhood and adolescence bouncing among Pentecostal and Southern Baptist congregations, all of them broadly conservative. \u201cI didn\u2019t know then about the various theological differences between these churches,\u201d he writes. \u201cNor did I know of the host of mainline Protestant denominations whose teachings aligned more closely with the American Left than the Right.\u201d<\/p>\n

Catholicism, he writes, was foreign to him, but its teachings, as he got older, began to engage him on an intellectual level \u201cmore than anything I\u2019d seen in either the secular or religious worlds I\u2019d previously operated in.\u201d He also describes a \u201crich social tradition\u201d of Catholicism, which fostered in him a deeper understanding about relationships with others, but also with himself. \u201cThis resonated with me,\u201d he writes.<\/p>\n

I was interested to know how he squares this concept of a Christian creed in America with the First Amendment guarantee of separation between Church and state. He pointed to the founding of the country, when many of the original colonies had officially established churches. \u201cThere was this recognition that public religion would have a significant role in public life,\u201d Vance told me. \u201cWe just didn\u2019t want Congress mandating or requiring religion, or really getting involved at the federal level in questions of faith.\u201d<\/p>\n

He insisted that Christian teachings can complement American life. He told me he also embraced the notion that \u201cdifferent people could come at different truths with some broad understanding, but also some disagreement. And that dynamism was, I think, very much part of the American founding too.\u201d<\/p>\n

After publishing Hillbilly Elegy<\/i> in 2016<\/span>, Vance writes, he found a \u201ccomfortable niche as a Trump skeptic.\u201d He was criticizing Trump \u201cfrom a conservative perspective while defending his voters,\u201d he writes in Communion<\/i>. (The account soft-pedals the extent of Vance\u2019s discomfort with Trump, whom he referred to in 2016 as \u201creprehensible\u201d and an \u201cidiot\u201d who could well become \u201cAmerica\u2019s Hitler.\u201d In a story 10 years ago for this magazine, Vance wrote that Trump was \u201ccultural heroin.\u201d) Vance explains his stance then in the context of \u201csocial rituals\u201d of political commentary: \u201cI was rewarded for saying bad things about Donald Trump even though my background and politics made me an odd fit for elite media culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump criticism,\u201d he adds, \u201cfunctioned as social immunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

But he noticed that his family and friends back in Ohio and Kentucky supported Trump overwhelmingly and were unbothered by his coarse approach to communication. Vance came to believe that he needed to focus less on the \u201cstylistic element\u201d of Trump and pay more attention to his policies. \u201cPart of the reason the anti-Trump conservatives hated Donald Trump,\u201d he says, revisiting comments he made to The New York Times<\/i>, \u201cwas that he represented a threat to a way of doing things in this country that has been very good for them.\u201d Vance voted for Trump in his losing 2020 bid.<\/p>\n

By the time Vance ran for Senate in 2022, he was fully on board with Trumpism, perpetuating the then-former president\u2019s claims of a stolen election, downplaying the gravity of the January 6 attack on the Capitol, and claiming that Democrats had encouraged illegal immigration to grow their support base. With Trump\u2019s backing, he won. He recalls being stunned two years later to make Trump\u2019s vice-presidential shortlist, given that he was a white senator from a non-swing state, and describes enduring a somewhat jarring vetting process that scrutinized everything, including his marriage (\u201cHave you cheated on your wife?\u201d he says he was asked, in a conversation that included his wife).<\/p>\n

Usha, his wife, is Hindu. But Vance credits her with propelling him on his journey back to Christianity, through her openness to exploring the world and challenging received ideas and teachings. There is, he writes, \u201cat least a little irony in the fact that my non-Christian wife helped lead me back to my own Christian faith, and then made it possible for me to discuss the journey on paper. The Lord works in mysterious ways, indeed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vance blends together his reflections on faith<\/span> and politics in Communion<\/i>, not least in his discussion of the Vatican, an institution with which Vance has been unafraid to tangle. He briefly mentions his meeting last year with Pope Francis, whom he says was more frail than he had expected. (Francis died a day after the meeting.) He also reflects on his conversation with Cardinal Pietro Parolin, who was then viewed as a favorite to be the next pope. He writes that he found the conversations \u201cunsettling\u201d because the Vatican\u2019s criticism of the Trump administration\u2019s immigration policies struck him as disconnected from the hard choices involved in governance. Vatican officials acknowledged America\u2019s right to secure its borders while also urging humane treatment of migrants, but didn\u2019t seem to Vance to recognize just how difficult it was to balance the two. \u201cHere I was, the most senior Catholic in the United States government, and the Vatican seemed unwilling to move its moral guidance past the point of trite platitudes,\u201d he writes.<\/p>\n

The Vatican\u2019s stance has become a more direct point of tension under Pope Leo XIV, the first American pontiff. Since his election in May, Leo has emerged as a sharp critic of the administration\u2019s immigration policies and its approach to the war with Iran, prompting Vance to publicly defend the White House.<\/p>\n

At a Turning Point USA event at the University of Georgia in April, he admonished the pope to be \u201ccareful when he talks about matters of theology,\u201d after the pope posted on social media that anyone who is a disciple of Christ \u201cis never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs.\u201d The pope\u2019s comments were widely interpreted as criticism of the Iran war\u2014a conflict that Trump launched despite his vice president\u2019s reservations. Leo has also urged Catholics to heed U.S. bishops\u2019 calls for a more humane approach to immigration, arguing that people who have spent years or decades building lives in America deserve to be treated with dignity.<\/p>\n

In the book, Vance tries to reconcile his record on immigration\u2014which has included spreading unverified rumors about immigrants in Ohio eating pets\u2014with his Christian beliefs. \u201cReal engagement with the immigration issue requires real engagement with the trade-offs. Law enforcement is an inherently difficult business,\u201d he writes. \u201cThe difficulty is applying these principles in a messy world with competing values.\u201d<\/p>\n

In recent months, Trump\u2019s once-impenetrable MAGA coalition has begun to show cracks, with divisions emerging over the Iran war and the Epstein files, among other things. I asked Vance if he feels well placed to bridge those divides, both as a possible Trump heir and as a onetime Never Trumper. His answer was carefully calibrated to avoid alienating Trump: \u201cThe president is the person most uniquely placed, obviously, as the leader of the party and the leader of the movement,\u201d he told me.<\/p>\n

If Vance runs in 2028, he\u2019ll have to reckon with how he\u2019s applied his principles during his service to Trump. Ingratiating himself with the man who has dominated Republican politics for the past decade once seemed an expedient political bet\u2014but not anymore, as Trump\u2019s popularity falters. The vice president will soon need to decide how loyal he can afford to be. His latest conversions may not be his last.<\/p>\n
