The Quintessential Good Samaritan

The Authorized Biography of John Joseph Kelly, Champion of Social Justice

By: Thomas Huening

John Joseph Kelly—the quintessential Good Samaritan—changed the lives of thousands of people in need, first as a devoted Catholic priest; then as a champion of the poor and a father figure to troubled minority youth; and finally, as a one-on-one mentor offering hope and guidance to hardcore San Quentin inmates. A humble man, Kelly shared traits with St. Francis of Assisi, Mother Teresa, Dorothy Day, and Mahatma Gandhi…but was embarrassed by these comparisons. Kelly was nevertheless a spiritual superstar and a role model for anyone who truly desired to make a difference in their own community, or on a grand scale, to help solve growing income inequality and racial disparity. When he died in 2019 at age ninety, thousands who knew him recalled the credo that marked his life: “We need to take what God has given us, discover it, and use it for justice and good.” Father Kelly, tall and lanky with close cropped hair, one whose eyes displayed an alert intelligence, did exactly this when he traded his Catholic collar for a work shirt in 1979. He dropped his cassock in dramatic fashion after his final mass to pursue “justice and good” for the next forty years. Kelly showed the courage of his convictions when he struggled with Church bureaucracy, hypocrisy, internal politics, silk vestments, and processions, ultimately deciding he could help more people by being less faithful to Catholic dogma, and do more as a lay person devoted to the teachings of Jesus, Muhammad, and Krishna. Kelly then dedicated his life to inspiring others to become instrumental in helping thousands of people—many of them homeless—who were hungry and needed food, shelter, and adequate clothing.

Thomas Jefferson's Bible

Religious Freedom in America

By: Thomas Huening

We Hold These Truths..." Thomas Jefferson was the 3rd President of the United States and he also drafted a version of the Bible that created religious inquiry and historical intrigue from its inception. In this thought-provoking exploration, author Thomas Huening embarks on a daring quest to unravel the complexities of faith, freedom, and the enigmatic legacy of one of America's most iconic figures. Drawing from his own experiences as a Catholic and a lifelong seeker of truth, Huening invites readers on a fascinating journey through the pages of history and scripture. With keen insight and meticulous research, he unveils the hidden layers of Thomas Jefferson's seminal work, "The Jefferson Bible," shedding light on the motivations and beliefs that shaped the third U.S. president's audacious attempt to redefine Christianity for a new era. From Jefferson's bold editorial decisions to his visionary advocacy for the separation of church and state, this book offers a compelling glimpse into the mind of a revolutionary thinker and statesman. Through meticulous analysis and engaging prose, Huening uncovers the complexities of Jefferson's worldview, challenging readers to reconsider their own perspectives on religion, politics, and the pursuit of truth. Whether you're a scholar of American history, a devout reader of the Bible, or simply a curious explorer of the human condition, "Thomas Jefferson's Bible" promises to captivate and inspire. Join Thomas Huening on a journey of discovery as he navigates the intersection of faith and reason, inviting readers to engage in a spirited dialogue that transcends the boundaries of time and belief.

Spiritual Choices

Putting the HERE in Hereafter

By: Thomas (Tom) Huening

ENDORSEMENTS: "Tom Huening... shares many interesting ideas in Spiritual Choices." Deepak Chopra, Author, Life After Death: The Burden of Proof "Tom Huening... (has) a clear sense of emerging spirituality." Ken Fisher, Forbes Columnist, Founder Fisher Investments "Tom Huening... faces the issues openly and honestly. ... I recommend Spiritual Choices." John Shelby Spong "Tom Huening's Spiritual Choices asks, what would Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, Confucius, or Buddha say today about how ... to be spiritual... today." Warren Blank, Ph.D. President, The Leadership Group Also: "Spiritual Choices... is a shocking, disgusting attack on revered Catholic dogma... buying this book (is) a matter for Confession." Pope Kahanus I, Author, Our Way or the Highway "Huening suggests that evolution is real, claims contradictions in the Holy Bible, and being born once is enough. Spiritual Choices... is clearly the work of the devil." RIGHT Reverend Pat Robason, Church of the Immaculate Deception "Relatively speaking, Huening gets God, considering his lack of scientific evidence. Spiritual Choices advances our knowledge of the universe." Alfred Einsteen, Author, God is Faster Than Light "Spiritual Choices: Putting the HERE in Hereafter, the movie, is even better than the book; we give it Five Stars!" Mitch Juggart, Rolling Rock Magazine "I didn't actually read Spiritual Choices: Putting the HERE in Hereafter, but I know what he is thinking. I support Huening's focus on the present life I have given you all. I suggest (no pressure here) that you buy it." God, Author, All the Great Spiritual Works Since Time Immemorial Our great prophets had a vision, a profound experience of the divine. Each shared that vision with the people of the time, in the language of their era. Illiterate audiences undoubtedly appreciated and stood in awe of these human interpretations of God. These ancient and profound descriptions of the divine have since been interpreted by holy men and women-as well as many kooks and zealots who not only claimed to speak for God but who claimed they were God. Science then added to our religious knowledge placing us in a unique historical position to exercise our freedom of spiritual choice to see God or Nature each in our own way.
