THE EUCHARIST and LOVE FOR THE MASS - The Eucharist truly is the true body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ, which is the heart and soul of the Catholic faith. Through the Catholic Mass, Jesus Christ feeds His followers through His Word and with His living Body. This should be a transforming event that makes those who receive Jesus radically different from those who do not receive Him. Recipients of the living God should be so incredibly changed that they stand out from the rest of the world. Non-Catholics should look at us Catholics and crave what we have. Very often, this does not happen because many Catholics have not learned how to let Christ live in them. Through this talk, Sean teaches his listeners how to embrace the sacrifice of Christ so that they become His beating heart in the world! Words on this webpage cannot do justice to potency and effectiveness of Sean's message on this topic!

EVANGELIZATION - As baptized followers of Christ, we are called to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ throughout our lives.  Sadly, many people are poorly equipped to fulfill their baptismal calling to evangelize.  In order to strengthen the Body of Christ, and assist people in improving their ability to share their faith, Sean gives his listeners motivating facts, concepts, examples, and ideas to prepare and empower them to courageously spread the Gospel.

SACRAMENTS - Humanities relationship with God was broken through the original sin of Adam and Eve.  Jesus Christ came to the earth to save man from sin so that we could one day be with Him in heaven.  Jesus shares the sanctifying grace He won for us on the cross through the Sacraments.  Sean teaches his listeners how to make proper use of the Sacraments for personal and communal growth in holiness.  The more people understand the Sacraments and learn how to properly utilize them to facilitate their growth in holiness, the more it will inspire non-Catholics to join the Catholic Church.

PRAYER AND SPIRITUALITY - Many people feel like they hit a roadblock when it comes time to pray.  They are either not sure how to get started in prayer, or they are not sure how to make the next step in their spiritual life.  If you have read any of Sean's books, you already know that he has an amazing, vibrant spirituality that inspires others to follow in his footsteps.  Through this talk, Sean shares how he has developed his deep spiritually and ability to pray and discern the workings of the Holy Spirit.  Through his example, people at all stages of their faith journey find helpful ideas that they can tangibly apply in their everyday situations.

SELF KNOWLEDGE AND SELF AWARENESS - One of the main inhibiting factors in most people's development, both spiritually and naturally, is that they lack self awareness.  In fact, they don't even realize they are lacking in this area.  Sean was once one of these  people and is able to lead others out of this darkness into the light.  Many people are COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY by this talk!  They are shocked and amazed by how much each of us can grow and mature in life just by the way we perceive our own inner reality.

THE FIRE OF GOD'S LOVE - In this talk, Sean teaches his listeners how to allow God's love to flow through their own hearts and souls in a way that will enable them to touch the hearts of the individuals they are speaking with. The potency of this type of experience will draw people to desire and crave a deeper, experiential relationship with each person of the Blessed Trinity.

INFLUENCE AND CHOICES - TV, music, media, friends, and family have an impact and influence on our lives and our decisions.  Sean reveals ways that these influences can be either positive or negative and the impact they have on our decision making process.  Once individuals see the truth more clearly, they have the opportunity to make wise choices for their life.

DISCERNING GOD'S WILL - It took four years of INTENSE prayer and suffering before Sean finally learned how God was speaking to him.  If he only had a few key concepts in mind before he started his vocational discernment, he would have avoided many years of suffering and wandering aimlessly in the wrong direction.  Sean seeks to help others find God's will for their life and avoid many of the unnecessary sufferings he went through in his discernment!  This talk not only applies to one's vocational discernment, but discernment in smaller, everyday decisions.

CHASTITY / SEXUALITY - Every single person is called to live appropriate chastity according to his or her state in life. One of the greatest challenges for every human being is to incorporate their own personal sexuality into their life in a healthy, holy, and chaste way.  Sean's talk on chastity goes much deeper then intellectual knowledge.  He presents this topic to people (both young and old) in a way that tremendously inspires them to live a life of holy love, which is the fruit of authentic chastity.

DATING RELATIONSHIPS - Our society is plagued with sin and divorce.  Our culture is not training people (both young and old) for a life of commitment and dedication.  We've lost sight of the purpose of a dating relationship and how it fits into the context of marriage.  With this talk, Sean seeks to help single people learn how to choose the right spouse and prepare for a fulfilling life in a lasting marriage.

MARRIAGE - The vocation of marriage is a calling to love. This includes laying down your life for your spouse, but what exactly does that mean? Very often, people have the wrong perception of how to give of themselves in marriage, which in turn inhibits the growth of the relationship. Sean provides solid ideas for married couples to help them deepen their love for each other through deep personal self-giving in communication.  This in turn strengthens their marriage bond which is crucial for couples living in our current culture.

PARENTING AND MENTORING - Fostering the correct parenting and mentoring skills are crucial for facilitating positive growth in young people. Through utilizing the concepts Sean provides, parents will know how to teach their children respect, responsibility, love for others, and good decision making skills. These characteristics are radically lacking in our younger generations because parents do not know how to instill these virtues, which is exactly why many parents will dramatically benefit from this talk!

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY - This talk is geared toward Junior and Senior High students but also has its application for young adults and adults.  While Sean was a high school religion teacher, he found that his students often blamed other people for things that came as the result of their own choices.  This behavior motivated Sean to begin teaching them how to take responsibility for their actions and accept the consequences.  This in turn helped them mature and make better life decisions. As previously stated, many parents in our modern society have not learned how to instill this concept into their children, which is why this is a very important talk that will benefit many schools. 

DECISIONS CONCERNING DRUGS AND ALCOHOL - This talk is designed for high school aged students.  Much of the talk is based on the motivating story of how Sean almost lost his life at the age of seventeen at the hands of a drunk driver.  He's also seen the negative effect of drugs as they destroyed the lives of people he's personally known.  Sean's message is clear and he helps young people realize that we all have choices to make concerning drugs and alcohol.  Sean helps them realize that many people make decisions based solely on emotion which can lead to disaster. Sean provides young people with solid ideas on how to think things through and make good choices.

JUDGE NOT - Many people hear the Scripture passage "Judge not and you will not be judged."  The spiritual implications of this passage evades most people, and the meaning goes much deeper than is often recognized by the average Christian. Through this talk, Sean reveals some positive insight into this passage that significantly helps people grow spiritually and mature in every aspect of their lives. This in turn enables them to be a more powerful witness of their freedom as  a child of God.

THE SIN OF ADAM - Original sin happened through the choices of Adam and Eve.  Many of us sin in a similar way without even realizing it.  This reality can actually be quite frightening to face, which is why many people subconsciously ignore it.  It will take an audience who deeply desires to grow in holiness to want to hear this talk.
