Steve's Brief video Biography of St. Paul's Life
On his last pilgrimage group to Rome Steve gave a short biography of St. Paul at Tre Fontone where St. Paul was beheaded. Now that we are in the Year of St. Paul, this will give you a short introduction to St. Paul and his life from the very place where he was beheaded.

THE YEAR OF ST. PAUL
 Starting June 28 we begin the Year of St. Paul to mark the 2000th anniversary of his birth in Tarsus. The Holy Father, Benedict XVI, has asked to all the Catholic Churches spread all over the world to consecrate one full year, from 28th of June 2008 to June 2009, to Saint Paul the apostle of the nations, to meditate his life and teaching.
1) ASK STEVE TO SPEAK ON ST. PAUL
Ask Steve to speak on St. Paul at your parish or conference. Steve has studied St. Paul and his life on location and is avaible to for talks such as "A Virtual Tour of Paul's Life," "The Road to Damascus," "The Writings of St. Paul." and much more. To Ask Steve to Speak, click here.
 2) SPECIAL ON PAUL DVD AND AUDIO CD TALK
In the spirit of this great celebration I would like to offer our DVD Paul: Contending for the Faith with a special offer.
Buy the DVD and get my audio CD St. Paul, Join the Galloping Adventure free (automatically included in the shipment). This talk was given at Franciscan University in Steubenville Ohio.
My DVD, rollicking adventure biography on St. Paul was filmed in 6 countries. We visit his birthplace, the Road to Damascus (where I fall off a horse), Antioch, Jerusalem, Corinth, Philippi, Ephesus, and more. We visit over 12 cities in total. We discuss his theology, defend the Catholic Church, and end up with his head cut off, in the catacombs, and his tomb in Rome.
 The DVD also includes an interview with Jewish convert Roy Schoeman (author of "Salvation is from the Jews"), bloopers, and Behind the Scenes showing the miracles that took place during the filming.
Use this for a Parish Study on St. Paul. There is no other documentary like this that is so complete and enjoyable for young and old alike. Study Guide on the life and teaching of St. Paul included free for personal or parish studies
 3) BIBLE STUDY ON ST. PAUL
Join or start an Acts of the Apostles Bible Study in your parish. It is easy and fun! Steve wrote this study for www.CatholicScriptureStudy.com and it is being used around the world by 10,000 members in 40 countries. Spend next year studying St. Paul in Acts with an easy-to-use, faithfully Catholic, in-depth Bible Study on St. Paul. Contact Gail at Catholic Scripture Study here, or call 877-228-7830.

 Why I Love Grandkids!
Today was great. Sunday is the Lord's Day for resting and Mass and family! We enjoyed all three today.
Little Gianna was too small to join the rest of us on this adventure, but 5 of the 6 grandkids (#7 is still in the womb!) jumped in the wagon behind our golfcart and off we went on a journey of discoveries!
I outran a goose and caught it so the kids could feel the soft down and see what they look like up close. We scrambled all over "diggy trucks" and climbed the "evil tower" chasing away the "evil creatures" and 101 other adventures. We found bones, animal tracks, and beautiful birds.
Grandkids are great--I get to re-live my childhood! My son Jesse took all the pictures. Click on each picture for a larger image. There are a lot more pictures on the Menu Bar above > Stories > Photo Albums.
It's not too late to join us in the HOLY LAND . . .
