SITE CONTENT

INVITE PAUL AS A MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION OR BOOK CLUB

Paul is a highly praised motivational speaker. Invite him to speak to your
group, book club or team.

UPCOMING APPEARANCES

As a school fundraiser, I am selling and signing copies of my inspirational and
motivational book, "Holy Smokes! Golden Guidance from Notre Dame's Championship
Chaplain" with a foreword by Lou Holtz, along with selling educational
children's books by best-selling author Callista Gingrich, former U.S.
ambassador to the Vatican; writer Charlotte Pence and illustrator Karen Pence,
featuring the Second Family's pet rabbit; and Charles M. Schulz, creator of the
"Peanuts" comic strip series and books. 


 My book features sports chaplain Fr. James Riehle, who guided players, coaches
and many others at the University of Notre Dame to overcome adversity and
achieve success on and off the athletic field. Each chapter offers a way to
improve your life as if the championship chaplain, who won four national
football titles with three different head coaches, was counseling you. The book
was highlighted on EWTN Bookmark and features the legendary Notre Dame sports
chaplain who appeared in RUDY.


 The beautifully illustrated children’s books are in limited supply and could
sell out quickly, so do not delay if you are interested. Gingrich’s “From Sea to
Shining Sea,” features the famed westward trek of Lewis and Clark; and “Remember
the Ladies,” highlights former First Ladies such as Michelle Obama, Laura Bush,
Jackie Kennedy and Martha Washington, from the perspective of Ellis the
Elephant. Two of the books by Charlotte and Karen Pence are “A Day in the
Nation’s Capital,” and “Best Christmas Ever.” The educational Charles M. Schulz
books feature American history, great investors, great explorers and great
heroes. Call 202-677-4457 or email holysmokesauthor@gmail.com to let me help you
find the right books among my remaining inventory to educate our future leaders,
inventors and history makers.

Thanks to Darrel Eason, the host and program director at the "Morning Praise"
radio show in St. Louis, for inviting me to appear on Friday, May 25, 2018, on
Praise 95.1 FM and 1250 AM, which provide contemporary urban gospel programming
in St. Louis. I look forwarding to returning as a guest again. I will provide
updates when I have them.


Thanks to the St. Catherine Laboure Sodality for inviting me as a guest speaker
in November 2017, as well as Bishop O'Connell High School, including its
football team led by Coach Disch, who welcomed me as a guest speaker on
Wednesday, November 2, 2016. The team responded by beating its rival 40-3 two
days later in a season-ending game.


My appearances give me a chance to highlight the wit and wisdom of Notre Dame's
late sports chaplain, Fr. James Riehle. My "Holy Smokes!" book, with a foreword
by Lou Holtz, is inspirational, motivational and biographical, with each chapter
featuring a different way to improve your life based on advice given by Fr.
Riehle to student-athletes, coaches, administrators, professors and others for
40-plus years. 




Endorsements and stories for the book come from Notre Dame players and coaches
of various faiths, races and backgrounds. They include former Washington
Redskins’ Joe Theismann and Reggie Brooks, four-time Super Bowl winner Joe
Montana, “Rocket” Ismail, “Digger” Phelps, Ara Parseghian and Fighting Irish
basketball coach and Rockville native Mike Brey. Many thanks to national
title-winning football coach Lou Holtz for providing the powerful foreword,
which conveyed that anyone who does not think a chaplain could make a difference
did not know Fr. Riehle.


GREAT NEWS! Catholic Athletes for Christ,
http://www.catholicathletesforchrist.org/, has approved my book for sale and
plans to begin offering it soon on its website. The group also is offering a CD
of broadcast great Vin Scully reciting the Rosary. Consider buying my book and
the Vin Scully CD!
