About the Author

Brian Young has provided youth instruction for decades in various fields, including religion, music, math, chess, scouting, sports, and life skills. He is currently 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 support food banks, and playing euphonium for the Salvation Army.

As a retired software programmer (his most proficient computer language: profanity – which triggered frequent trips to the confessional), he now plans to dedicate years to engaging and encouraging youth around the world, as well as the young at heart, to live out their Catholic faith by following the revealed 8 Streets to Christ. Brian is also a Christian author and, together with his wife Anne, they have one son and identical twin daughters.
