For months now, I’ve been looking forward to my upcoming television appearance on CatholicTV’s wonderful show This is the Day. Imagine how I felt when the following press release landed in my inbox – the other guest on the show will be none other than Robert Duvall! Unfortunately, I don’t think Mr. Duvall will be in studio, so I won’t be able to hand him a copy of my book in person, but it’s such an honor to share time on a show with such a noted actor.
Here are all of the details – I hope you’ll be able to tune in and watch what promises to be a very exciting show.
Academy-Award-Winning Actor Robert Duvall Will Appear on Live Catholic Talk Show
On August 6th, the live CatholicTV talk show “This is the Day” will include an interview with actor Robert Duvall.
Duvall will discuss his role in the upcoming film “Get Low”, “a movie spun out of equal parts folk tale, fable and real-life legend about the mysterious, 1930s Tennessee hermit who famously threw his own rollicking funeral party, while he was still alive”. Read the rest of this entry →
I love speaking around the country at conferences and parishes, but honestly one of my favorite events is right here in my own backyard. It is now time to register online for the upcoming Diocese of Fresno Congress. Visit the Congress website here for news and information. I will be giving two presentations – Unity in the Eucharist: Becoming a Eucharistic Family and Pastoral Ministry in a Digital World. Additionally, the Congress is situated in Visalia, quite near beautiful national parks in a lovely part of our state. If you live in or near California, I hope you will join us for this wonderful event!
Thanks to my friend and fellow podcaster Jerry Weber for his kind invitation to appear on The Catholic Revolver to discuss my book, our Catholic Moments podcast, and CatholicMom.com. Tune in here to listen to the archived show, or click on the player below.

I recently had the opportunity to speak with reporter Paula Doyle of The Tidings in advance of my two sessions at this year’s Archdiocese of Los Angeles’ Religious Education Congress. You can read the article in its entirety here. Thanks to Paula and The Tidings for highlighting my talks!
On Wednesday, March 10 I’ll be a part of a special team presenting a half day Clergy Communications Workshop for the priests of the Diocese of Fresno. Our very forward-thinking Bishop has embraced Pope Benedict XVI’s World Communications Day Message for this year and is providing this opportunity to assist the priests of our diocese with implementing technology strategies in their ministry. The Fresno Bee shared information on this workshop in this recent article. Please join me in praying for our priests and those who will join me in presenting this event.
