Dear Steve: Thank you so much for sending the Apostolic Fathers. I hope it arrives soon. I've been using the other 6 DVD's in our Bible study/RCIA meetings. They are well loved be everyone. I've had hundreds of reverts, many non-Catholic interest, actually have had nearly 50 converts, about 20 baptisms and 30 more confirmations. [...]

Update after the World Premier: After fighting off the paparazzi and wading through the cameras and press, my chauffer (me) dropped me off in the parking lot. Blinded by the camera flashes I stepped the podium to thank everyone. We can't take ourselves too seriously, eh? Need to have a little fun and levity once in a [...]

It is always surprising to read through Zenit Catholic News and find my interview. The Zenit.org news interviewed me a few weeks ago and wonder of wonders — there it was today! The interview was given in honor of Pope Benedict's proclamation that this was the year of St. Paul in honor of the 2000th [...]

We spent the evening with angels! Well, not really angels in the strict biblical sense, but certainly in the more popular sense. Just listen to them sing and laugh and pray; watch them glide across the floor, smile with joy, and demonstrate the love of Christ and tell me they don't sound and appear as angels. [...]

It's still hot in my hand – right off the press, well, right out of the DVD burner! The Apostolic Fathers, Handing on the Faith is done and I am on my way to Ignatius Press to show it to them and get their final approval before we make copies for everyone else! Here is [...]

After two years of work and deadlines, we are now FINISHED! We watched the final version last night for the first time. Wow! We are VERY happy with the results and think it might be our best Footprints of God DVD yet. Now it goes to replication, captioning, printing, packaging, etc. It will be out [...]

Meet St. Irenaeus — well, not really. This is Fr. Bernie Green from Tempe Arizona. But, he is the voice of St. Irenaeus in our new documentary Apostolic Fathers which we are finishing up this week. (Click on image of Fr. Bernie and Steve for a larger picture.) In June we came to Phoenix to [...]

We are again in the edit bay this week finishing Apostolic Fathers. We have lion's roaring, fire burning ME at the stake, Christian blood splattering on the white sand of the arena. We explain Tradition, the Papacy, relics, suffering, death and resurrection. We think this could be our best DVD yet — in our humble opinion. [...]

I was very happy to see the recent Legatus Magazine. The article was entitled "On the Road to Truth: A Look at Faith-based Travel." The article features our Footprints of God Pilgrimages and our partner Corporate Travel. It is a nice picture spread with good information about travel and pilgrimages for Catholics. Click here or [...]

The Virtual Tourist reviewed this way: If you want to visit the Holy Land as part of a packaged tour, be sure to check out the trips offered by author Stephen Ray. His "Footprints of God" series is highly informative and the off-beat way he presents the information will give you a good laugh or [...]

We have two more days of work on this trip. We have gotten a lot done — we've put the rough cut together. We've chosen all the art, created the maps, inserted background and travel footage and started reviewing the music. We got the last catchup shots and filmed "Behind the Scenes" in the set that [...]

Janet and I are working with Joe Reynolds at his studio in Mesa Arizona. Yeah, it's hot out here – usually over 100 degrees. But we are inside the dark recesses of Skyline Video, Edit Bay #1 putting together our next documentary in the Footprints of God DVD series. This project is the "Apostolic Fathers: Handing [...]

Please pray for us as this is a huge and daunting project. For the next two weeks we will spend six days a week, [...]

SATURDAY EVENING After 16 days we finished filming today. We were able to get our “inside-the-Colosseum” footage without paying $6,000 per hour. Tomorrow Pope Benedict XVI will ordain 22 new priests in St. Peters at the 9 AM Sunday Mass. We just received tickets from Legionairie Brother Ben Cieply — with seats near the high [...]

Fighting police and ambulance sirens, gawking tourists, packed streets, whining moter scooters, police wanting permits and multiple other obstacles, we still got a lot of good work done today. Even two medical emergencies back home weighed on our minds but did not stop us. Our crew is spectacular. Only scenes inside the Roman Colosseum remain [...]
