Catholic.xyz – what is it?  Why?

Since 2011, I have been involved with a number of incredible projects and causes including film, events, music and more.  Generally I have been very much behind the scenes.  But recently I have felt a strong call to do more and to take more risks by sharing my original work.

Over the last few years I have felt increasingly called to embark on creative and entrepreneurial endeavors to shape, impact and inspire culture.  All of my initiatives are inspired by my faith.

In 2021, I released Fulton’s Song, recorded to the heartbeat of baby Fulton captured during his 22-week ultrasound.  Fulton was stillborn on Good Friday that year.  Since that time Fulton’s Song has been shared and listened to thousands of times around the world.

Between 2021 to present, I have been actively writing and producing music designed to evangelization.  This music is largely made so my children will have something cool and wholesome to listen to.  The response from regular folks who like my music has inspired me to dig further.

Also in 2022 I released The Sacred Heart devotional study guide which promptly received an imprimatur from the Diocese of Peoria.   The study guide was inspired by my song Sacred Heart is the Boat.

In January of 2023, I launched the radio show and podcast Truth Culture Life via Catholic Spirit Radio.  The show has become one of the most popular segments for the station which broadcasts throughout central and northern Illinois.

In January of 2023, I hosted my 12th Law of Life Summit in Washington, D.C.

In March of 2023, I hosted the 1st annual Naples Pro-Life Summit – leadership retreat with community service and conference. The 2nd annual Naples Pro-Life Summit is in the works!

In May of 2023, I began production on an incredible documentary about Sister Wilhelmina. IncorruptibleMovie.com

I need a way to fund the production and promotion of these initiatives.  Further, I feel called to also help fund and promote others who also seek to use their talents for good.

Over the last few years we have witnessed an increase in chaos. The world needs +ruth.  The world needs catholic culture which by way of ancient history has always embodied art, science and creativity.  And as for the culture of life, well, what they do to the least of you they will do to any.

Catholic.xyz will become the platform for producing catholic film and for housing the Catholic Film Fund.

Praying for guidance and wisdom.
