A True Story of a Catholic Priest:
Why I Got In – Why I Got Out – And What I Learned Through It All

In my current autobiography, A True Story of a Catholic Priest – Why I Got In – Why I Got Out – And What I Learned Through It All,  I delve deeply into the following themes:

  • Living a career and then facing the fears and challenges of choosing another;
  • Navigating the Catholic Church and priesthood as a sexually fluid man during a time when none of this was talked about;
  • Growth, stagnation, and hang-ups regarding sexuality and relationships with both sexes;
  • The serendipitous journey from childhood religious fantasies to a mature and adult posture regarding ultimate questions of life;
  • Lessons learned, insights gleaned, and pitfalls endured and survived in the business world, including acquiring a Kellogg MBA in middle age;
  • And as Yoda taught Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars” – Things I had to unlearn and relearn through the years;

I highlight and introduce you to fascinating and captivating people from various walks of life.

And sprinkled through the book are solid doses of eclectic wisdom, humor and the vicissitudes of everyday life.

In this book, as well as my future books, podcasts, and presentations, I offer reflections on – self-improvement, inspiration, personal growth, emotional support, business ventures, motivation, spirituality, history, and biography.

I’ll also tell some good jokes and share some good stories.

In the long run, I trust that my story will be a stepping off point for discussions about our lives today.
