Notable guest quotes:
“I was blessed to be born to a Catholic family… I was given everything growing up from a faith perspective.”
“I went to a school called St. Gertrude… there we were taught our faith and were very blessed to have gone to that. It was just an incredible experience growing up, the way that the faith was a big part of our life. My parents made sure that was the case so when we became older it was ingrained in us.”
“I grew up, was taught how to serve Latin Mass from a very young age, probably first grade… It became a big part of me… It changes you.”
“It was a very well-rounded background in Catholicism that my parents afforded me, which I’ll always be grateful for.”
“I played soccer, baseball, and basketball growing up. I had a very short stint, not even a full season, in football.”
“That’s God’s work and He works through fools, and I was lucky enough to be one of ‘em.”
“(the work he has done through Catholic Speakers) is more rewarding than anything I’ve ever done secularly… Our mission statement is, ‘Promoting the word of God through those that do it best’.”
“The amount of network of pro athletes that we’ve been able to build over the last 16 years has just been phenomenal. And I could not be more blessed having people like that in my life to help me sharpen my faith.”
