Publishers

Creative Communications, St. Louis, Mo., has contracted with me for several small-group discussion guides for adults and families, including  The Bible—The Basics, a six-week introduction to Scripture for adults and senior high school students. I'm also an ongoing contributor to their Living Faith quarterly, a pocket-sized magazine of daily Scripture reflections.

Pflaum Publishing, Dayton, Ohio, has called on me to provide supplemental educational materials for several of their K-12 curriculum packages. I especially enjoyed developing two volumes of reproducibles for their  Active Learning series: 'My Help Along the Way -- The 7 Sacraments' for Grades 7 to 9 (you can have a lot of fun writing for middle school) and 'Understanding and Using the Bible' for Grades 4 to 6 (which some parishes use as a companion to The Bible—The Basics)

Liturgical Publications, New Berlin, Wis.  Catechetical materials for K-6. You do not truly understand the meaning of the word challenge until you are faced with reflecting on the Gospel According to John for an audience of nine-year-olds.
