DescriptionI'll be back w in a few weeks time, BUT in the meantime I wanted to share, for the next couple of weeks, some of my favorite interviews from early in Season 1. Last week I re-shared my interview with Sarah Kaczmarek, today I want to share my convo w Dan DeMatte - one of the founders of Damascus and it's Executive Director of Missions and Advancement. ++If you are speaking to Catholic audiences you don't want to just to pass on correct information, you want to make a deep impact. But how exactly do you do that? And are you willing to stay humble and attentive enough to hear the Holy Spirit, over months, maybe even years to allow a specific message - for the Church - to emerge in your life? Well, this was the transformational idea that I talked with Dan DeMatte about today. From his very first talk to his fellow 8th graders to co-founding one of the fastest growing youth and young adult ministry movements in the country, Damascus, he has been a steward of powerful messages for thousands each year. He is the author of Catholic bestseller, Holiness Revolution, with the Dynamic Catholic Institute. And recently released a new book called Dream Bigger! He is the co-host of Beyond Damascus, a podcast and radio program carried across the EWTN Global Catholic Radio Network And he lives in Ohio with his wife, Amber, and their four children.Link to Theme Song for the first retreat he lead as an 8th grader, Michael W. Smith's “My Place in this World.”Here's the link to the talk called “Dream Bigger” that we discussed: Dream Bigger by Dan DeMatteA link to Damascus MinistryLinks:For more information about the Better Preach Podcast visit: www.ryanohara.org/betterpreachBetter Preach is a proud member of Spoke Street, a Catholic Podcast Network that amplifies the voice of the Creator through fostering content that invites.
