How To Get "JUST" A Little Bit Closer To God, Ft. Rachel Shulte.

Simple, Practical, Powerful! This episode is what it says. Ever want to know how to get just a little bit closer to God? Have fear of the "long-term commitment" but are willing to take baby steps? Think "What About Bob" but for spirituality and religion. HaHa. Fr. Paul and Rachel Shulte discuss simple, practical ways that anyone and everyone can get "just a little bit closer to God."

Rachel Shulte is a 38-year-old stay-at-home wife, mother, and homeschooler of two children. She is a Catholic convert for 12 years with deepening conversion thanks to the beauty of the Theology of the Body and practical ways of living it daily. She's about to embark on certification to become a Catholic Mindset Coach to help others find a faith-based approach to healing.

Rachel wishes to dedicate this conversation to her son Riley, her "lifesaver."

About the Podcast

A Holy Mess
With His HoliMess Father Paul
Fr. Paul Houlis is, in no way, His Holiness, but he sure is, “His HoliMess.” He knows from personal experience that one’s life can truly be a beautiful, holy, mess.
Are we not all, in some way, “A Holy Mess?” After all, holiness is messy! We live in a messy world, and God entered the depths of its “messiness” and made it “holy”. He can do the same for one’s life!
So tune in, and bring your mess with you. You’ll find out that God doesn’t just clean the mess of one’s life but uses it! He turns our mess into a beautiful message of hope…if we let Him.
Join “His HoliMess” for a clean, but very messy podcast.

Fr. Paul Houlis is a priest of the Archdiocese of Newark, in New Jersey. Before entering the seminary, he pursued a career in stand-up comedy and acting in New York City. His life was flipped upside down shortly after the tragic events of 9/11/2001. Faced with the close reality of death, he starting asking questions about life. He soon found that true life was found in living a life for others, not just for self. "If you get me through this I'll dedicate my life to helping your children," he cried out to GOD. The rest is history.
Fr. Paul desires to use his love for comedy and entertainment to help bring others joy. After all, the Christian person must be a person of joy. For GOD truly is a JOY to the world....even in it's mess.
