Catholic Sportsman Show podcast #21-Searching for talents from God-Patrick O‘Hearn Author and Acquisitions Editor at TAN Books

Author: Paul Michelini and Randy Laya (RIP co-founder Jeff Corrigan) November 8, 2021 Duration: 47:18
Patrick O'Hearn is Acquisitions Editor at TAN Books and he is looking for writing talent much like a college football recruiter is looking for that unknown 2-star or 3-star football recruit that can grow into starting player someday in the future. As John Wooden says, execution is key, and God wants us to do all things with love.  Do the small tasks well with love and God may fill your cup even more. To see more on Patrick's books, please see the information listed below. If a young child you know likes the movie Ben Hur, this children's book would make a great Christmas present.     https://contemplativeheartpress.com/nissim-the-shepherd-of-bethlehem/   A great resource for anyone that has lost a child from miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss.    https://www.amazon.com/Nursery-Heaven-Miscarriage-Stillbirth-Parents/dp/1734149302    

In a world where stadiums and sanctuaries often feel miles apart, The Catholic Sportsman Show Podcast finds the profound connection between them. Hosts Paul Michelini and Randy Laya, alongside the enduring memory of co-founder Jeff Corrigan, engage in thoughtful conversations that explore how the drama, discipline, and community found in sports intersect with a lived Catholic faith. This isn't just a post-game analysis; it's a deeper look at the stories, history, and personalities within athletics, examining them through a spiritual lens. You'll hear discussions that are as likely to delve into the theological virtues demonstrated on the field as they are to appreciate a great historical moment in sport. Recorded within The Diocese of Orange, California, the podcast brings on guests who share this unique perspective, creating dialogues that are both topical and timeless. Whether reflecting on loss, leadership, or pure athletic joy, Paul and Randy offer a space where the universal language of games meets the enduring questions of faith, culture, and society. Tune in for a series that celebrates the athlete's journey while thoughtfully considering its place within a broader spiritual life.
