About the Author

Brian Young has provided youth instruction for decades in areas of religion, music, math, chess, scouting, sports, and life skills.  He currently is in his 13th year teaching Catholic Confirmation students and is in his second year leading a church Youth Group of up to 21 teenagers. His earlier interests included bicycling, hiking the Appalachian Trail, producing Gong Shows to benefit the homeless, tutoring math students to benefit food banks, and playing euphonium for the Salvation Army. 

Young is a retired software programmer (his most proficient computer language: profanity – which triggered frequent trips to the confessional). He now plans to spend years engaging and encouraging world youth and the young at heart to live out their Catholic faith on the revealed 8 Streets to Christ. He and his wife, Anne, have one son and identical twin daughters.
