Coached by the Curé: Lessons in Shepherding with St. John Vianney

In a world where modern secularism clouds the consciences of Catholic youth and adults alike—and so few clergy are regarded as their rescuers—St. John Vianney, the humble patron saint of priests, receives a new title: Patron Saint of the Domestic Priesthood. St. Philomena, his muse, urges him to guide parents in their sacred role: “Jean-Marie, countless parents mourn for their lost children . . . you must teach moms and dads to be the priests of their homes.” In Coached by the Curé, the saint’s example illuminates the path for Catholic parents and all who seek to bring lost souls back from modern ideologies, indifference, and confusion. Readers discover the saintly traits of Vianney—the pastor who sacrificed his life for sinners. His humility, fortitude to overcome Satan’s relentless assaults, Eucharistic love, devotion to Mary, courage, prayer, and commitment to penance shine through, offering a powerful guide for those who are eager to help others return to the light. Parents, laity, and clergy alike will find inspiration in the heart of this true white martyr, willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of even a single soul.
