US Vice President JD Vance has released his second book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, offering readers an intimate account of his spiritual journey and evolving views on religion's role in public life. The memoir arrives at a time when speculation surrounding Vance's potential 2028 presidential bid continues to gain momentum.
The new book marks a departure from his bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy, which chronicled his upbringing in working-class America. In Communion, Vance turns inward, reflecting on his conversion to Catholicism in 2019 and the personal experiences that shaped his faith.
According to publisher HarperCollins, Vance had initially begun writing a book centred on faith in 2022 before setting the project aside. Communion eventually emerged as an expanded and more personal exploration of spirituality, identity, and belief.
The title itself is rooted in Christian tradition, referring to the Eucharist, the sacred rite commemorating the Last Supper. Throughout the memoir, Vance traces his religious evolution, recalling periods in his life when he identified as a Protestant Christian and later as an atheist before embracing Catholicism at the age of 35.
