Deacon Bob Rice

Every week, my good friend Fr. Dave and I talk about sports, culture, and Catholicism, taking a hopeful look at the crazy world in which we live. Check out the latest episode by clicking the skateboard below, and click HERE to listen to another podcast I did, “Speaking with Deacons.”

One of my greatest joys in life is sharing the Gospel and helping others to do the same! Whether I’m preaching a homily at daily Mass, teaching a class about catechetics, or speaking in front of two-thousand teenagers at a youth conference, I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share the Word with others. I rejoice with the words of Isaiah, “The Lord GOD has given me a well-trained tongue, that I might know how to answer the weary a word that will waken them” (Isaiah 50:4).

I love to write. I wish I had more time for it! I’ve had a few books both published and self-published, and I’ve also occasionally blogged. Find out more of what I’ve written HERE or click on an image below to read more about it at Amazon.
