Amazing Minutes

Welcome to the AmazingCatechistsTM blog! I'm floating this little dingy off the back of our ship at www.amazingcatechists.com in order to make it easier for you to listen to my short lessons on teaching the Faith, as previously broadcast on Lisa Hendey's podcast, CatholicMoments.

Do check out Lisa's beautiful podcast. It's always, always worth a listen! Tune in while you're making dinner, working out, washing the car or folding laundry. She's got other guest hosts besides me: Avery, an incredible teen who talks about the Faith from a young person's perspective; Deacon Tom, with his wise and endearing lessons in the Faith; Sarah Reinhardt, with her lovely Mary Moments; and Lisa's featured guests, who include fascinating Catholics doing great work in the home, in the workplace, the community, and in the media.

This little storage facility for my segments is by no means meant to direct you away from CatholicMoments, but just to assemble them, in order, for anyone who has missed one or two, or all of them! God bless you as you learn and pray and teach. If you place your trust in Jesus Christ, He will always be at your side! Here are the links to the first ten installments. Each one is a minute to a minute-and-a-half long. Enjoy!
