    I Will Serve - Catholic Husband

    There’s a reason people always feel better after some act of volunteerism, why we oddly feel better after an hour of picking up trash on the side of the road than we do after an hour of watching TV. We give of ourselves for the sake of others. When we serve, we become part of something greater.

    Given Up for You - Catholic Husband

    In many ways, God is an enigma, a mystery of unimaginable depth and complexity. What mind can truly comprehend pure love? Yet in His magnificent intricacy, enough was revealed for me to know in my heart that I am His, that I am loved, and that my greatest end is to know, love, and serve Him.

    Book Review: Remade for Happiness 📚

    In 1946, Bishop Fulton Sheen published this book into a post-war America. It was the end of the Second World War, and a triumphant America was feeling conflicted. Victory over global enemies and the unifying of the country was exhilarating, but the events of the last six years troubled the conscience. Daily reports of wartime atrocities in Europe and the Pacific were filling newsprint. What do we make of a world this dark? How do we find happiness?

    To these questions, the charismatic and persuasive Sheen released this book to help us recover our true identity and heritage. The questions and doubts that faced Americans in 1946 are the same ones that we face today. A world that seeks its pleasures, that wants its priorities, and that tries to crowd out the nagging conscience that calls us to higher and truly good things.

    In just under 200 pages, Sheen covers the basic elements of Catholic Theology, and applies them to our individual lives. From challenging our understanding of God, to the consequences of our choices, and the theological virtues, Bishop Sheen masterfully makes the complex approachable and applicable. His thoughtful and clever analogies reframe ideas and invite us to rethink our longstanding beliefs. More than once, he turned my ideas on their head, helping me to see something in a wholly new dimension.

    Fulton Sheen’s cause for canonization is nearing completion, and reading this book, I understand why. Watching videos of him on YouTube giving talks, preaching, or even appearing on popular game shows, I always leave the video with a smile. There’s a magnetism to his presence and his message that evidences not just a deeper truth, but a deeper joy from which it emanates. Sheen was an Apostle to Modern America and this book is a fantastic way to enjoy the message of faith, hope, and charity he was sent to broadcast.

  • Clarity in Complexity

    Most business owners I know struggle to find the perfect one-liner that encapsulates their value proposition. This isn’t their elevator pitch, but the simple explanation they can share in a social setting when they’re asked, “What do you do for work?” Sure, some professions are simpler than others. We’ve all hired electricians, seen builders work, and know a doctor. But even within those professions, there is a wide range of practice.

    It’s been more than a decade since I left my nonprofit job, and just last week I found myself stumbling over the same question at a block party. I write and communicate for my clients every day, yet I had trouble putting into words exactly what I do. It was time to figure it out.

    I graduated with a degree in Philosophy. It’s not a market-based credential, like law or education, but a wide-open field. Are many companies hiring for philosophers? Is there an extreme shortage in the Department of Intellectual Inquiry at Fortune 500 companies? No. Philosophy’s true strength is its framework. The process of thinking through even complex topics, reducing them to their most basic structure, and examining their essential nature is incredibly valuable in every industry and organization.

    Philosophy is my firm’s differentiator, but how does it tie together sales tax audits, contract review, website design, systems development, file management, or any of the dozens of assorted tasks I’ve performed for clients? In every instance, I’ve used philosophy to deliver clarity in complexity.

    Business owners, leaders, and entrepreneurs have more responsibilities than they have time. Every minute spent on back-office tasks is time that could be better invested in growth and serving existing clients. I take on the complexity, untangle it, and bring my clients the clarity they need to make informed and confident decisions.

    Figuring out how to describe what I do was complex, but by following my own process, I finally arrived at an answer. I run a management consulting firm that handles back-office complexity so leaders can focus on growth.
