Taylor Marshall

Taylor Reed Marshall is an American Catholic academic, writer, apologist and online content producer known for his advocacy for traditionalist Catholicism. He is the author of multiple books including Infiltration: The Plot to Destroy the Church from Within, published in 2019.

Marshall graduated from Texas A&M University in 1999 with a degree in philosophy. After studying at Westminster Theological Seminary and Nashotah House, Marshall was ordained a priest of the Episcopal Church. Shortly thereafter, in 2006, he and his wife converted to Catholicism. In 2011, Marshall earned his Ph.D. in Philosophy at University of Dallas.

From January 2012 until June 2013, Marshall served as the chancellor of the now-defunct College of Saints John Fisher & Thomas More. Prior to his administrative work at the college, he was a professor of philosophy. Marshall also formerly served as the assistant director of the Archdiocese of Washington's Catholic Information Center. He is a founder of the New Saint Thomas Institute, an online Catholic theology educational program, and the Troops of Saint George, a Catholic scouting organization.

Marshall has published books in the fields of theology, philosophy, and historical fiction. The vast majority of these books have been published by Saint John Press and Media, a company held and managed by Marshall. He actively promotes traditionalist Catholicism through his various websites, blog posts, podcasts, and YouTube videos. Guests on his platforms have included Michael Voris, Alexander Tschugguel, and Faith Goldy. Marshall has been openly critical of Bishop Robert Barron's promotion of the Balthasarian thesis of the possibility of universal salvation. His 2019 book, Infiltration, claims to demonstrate that, over the last two centuries, the Catholic Church has been systematically infiltrated by modernist and secular humanist ideology. The forward of the book was written by Bishop Athanasius Schneider. The book has been controversial in Catholic circles, drawing both positive and negative reviews. In an interview, Archbishop Carlo Viganò spoke positively of the book's central thesis.

From July 2018 to October 2019, Marshall had Timothy Gordon co-host on his Dr. Taylor Marshall Show on YouTube, nicknamed "TnT." The two would discuss the current and historical events of Catholic Church such as the sex scandal of Theodore McCarrick, the Marian apparitions at Fátima, the letters of Archbishop Carlo Viganò, and the Amazon Synod.

In October 2019, Marshall received media attention for publicizing an incident at the Catholic Church's Amazon Synod in which Tschugguel and an accomplice filmed themselves removing indigenous fertility statues, reportedly of Pachamama, from the Church of Santa Maria in Traspontina in Rome and throwing them into the Tiber river.

Marshall met his wife, Joy, in 1999. They were married on June 9, 2001 at Saint Andrew's Episcopal Church in Fort Worth, Texas. They have eight children. Marshall and his family converted from Anglicanism to Roman Catholicism in May 2006, receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation from Bishop Kevin Vann. He is a parishioner at Mater Dei Catholic Church in Dallas, which is run by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter.
