Speaking

Hello! My name is David Bates and, in addition to talking about C.S. Lewis on my podcast, Pints With Jack , one of my favourite things in the world is to visit other groups of Catholics and encourage them in their faith.

I have been invited to speak at conferences, retreats and diocesan events in California, Washington, Kansas,  Missouri, Michigan, Texas, and Canada. These talks are typically on Church History, Sacred Scripture, Chastity, Evangelization and C.S. Lewis. Over twenty different talks have been recorded and are available for download.

In response to my talks and work as a podcast, I have also been a guest on a number of different podcasts and radio shows, including The Counsel of Trent, Forte Catholic Radio Show and The Catholic Man Show.

If you would like me to come and give a talk at your parish, please just send me an email. I am VIRTUS Safe Environment Certified and have references from over thirty different Catholic leaders, as well as a letter of recommendation from my Pastor.
