Getting Spiritually Fit this New Year!

Joe Paprocki Books, Joe's Comings and Goings

I commented a few days ago about the fact that many of us commit to getting physically fit in the New Year and, while there is certainly nothing wrong with that, perhaps it would be even more important to get spiritually fit! My new book, 7 Keys to Spiritual Wellness will help you to do just that.

To be spiritual is to recognize that, in life, there is more than meets the eye. Spiritual wellness enables us to seek the “more.” In my book, I provide 7 enduring and reliable strategies for maintaining a wellness in our spiritual lives so that we can recognize, seek, and embrace the “more” that is God’s grace.

There’s no time like the present to get started and, since my book is not yet available (it will be in just a few weeks and you can pre-order it NOW!), I’ve decided to go ahead and share the introduction and chapter 1 with you, FREE! I hope you enjoy it and I also hope that it whets your appetite for the rest of the book!

For today’s class, we will be focusing on how we can trust in God, who is our “Rock” (drawing from Psalm 144:1). To reinforce the idea, I’m giving each of the students a rock with the words “Blessed be the LORD, my rock” Ps 144:1 Where did I get these from? It so happens that I live near some railroad tracks, so I went over there and picked out a number of gray rocks with […]

The Catechist as COACH

Joe Paprocki Approaches/Techniques, Being a Catechist

  I’m always amazed at how many men I see coaching their kids’ soccer, football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and even lacrosse teams! And yet, so few men feel called to serve as a catechist when, in my mind, it is another form of coaching. Perhaps too many men view being a catechist as a feminine/nurturing role that they are not comfortable with. Fortunately, a growing number of men are discovering how to serve as catechists in […]
