Your Instagram focuses on making Catholic content “sharable” and relatable. What inspired you to use social media as a platform for sharing your faith, and how do you balance humor with serious theological messages?

When I first started Instagram it was mainly family, just posting about my life. When I got into the content game, I started out with health and fitness. Everything just seemed to click once I focused my content to the most important aspect of my life: my Catholic faith.

There’s already a lot of good Catechesis content out there, so I wanted to be more relatable to the average Joe who wants to share his faith and love his family. 

Can you tell us about the mission behind His Glory Co? 

His Glory started in 2018. I was looking for a way to make some extra money and stumbled across the print on demand process. I came across this brand “Not of this World” a few years ago and wanted to create something like this for the youth that appeals to Catholics. 

Clothing is a way we communicate without saying anything. It’s definitely a way to evangelize. The founder of Not of this World had all these statistics on how what we wear can spread the Gospel. Around 2020 I shortened the brand to His Glory Co (originally called All for His Glory).

You were at the National Eucharistic Congress in Indianapolis. What were some of the most powerful moments or insights you gained from that experience?

I think the most powerful was Eucharistic Adoration every night. I loved how the event organizers stayed true to our faith and tradition. The first night was contemporary music, the second was Gregorian chant, the third was silence, and the final night was provided by Matt Maher. It displayed the universality of the Catholic Church. 

How do you see it impacting Catholic engagement today?

I think there’s more of a yearning for the Eucharist, particularly in Adoration. In my own diocese of Los Angeles and Diocese of Orange we are seeing more opportunities for the laity to visit Jesus in Adoration. The revival has sparked more interest in the Blessed Sacrament and the realization that we all need Jesus. 

Many people find Catholic doctrine complex or intimidating. How do you approach making the faith more accessible and understandable, especially through your memes, reels and content?

That’s a good question! I dove into the Catechism after my Confirmation. I don’t know if it’s a charism, God grants us these various gifts and unless we try them out we never know. I’m an educator at heart. I taught 9 years at a Catholic school. So I have a natural knack for teaching, making it fun and relatable while staying true to the Catholic teaching. 

As a Catholic influencer, you likely encounter both supporters and critics. What’s the most challenging misconception about Catholicism that you find yourself constantly addressing?

Obviously, the one about Catholics “worshipping” Mary. A second misconception is the idea of the Church exclusively as the Body of Christ but not while being the official institution. It’s both!

Why do you believe humor can be an effective tool for spiritual communication?

It’s a light way to introduce heavy topics because a lot of Catholic teachings are misunderstood. If you can meet people where they are at, it can help teach people about the faith. 

For someone who might be curious about Catholicism but feels overwhelmed or unsure where to start, what would be your advice?

I would say a starting point would be Catechism in a Year because it’s not invasive. Fr. Mike breaks it down in easy to digest sessions. Listening to a good Catholic podcast is a good starting point. 

Who are your favorite Catholic saints? 

Saint John Paul II, Saints Joseph, and Saint Michael the Archangel. 

Any last words of encouragement for my readers? 

In the first paragraph of the Catechism, Be attentive to where God is calling you. 

Where can my audience find more of your work?
