John Edwards ‘Just a Guy in the Pew’ Ministry is all about our baptismal vocation, a holiness and service, of justice and mercy and mission. And so, I say to John and to all, with St. Ignatius of Loyola: ‘go forth and set the world on fire.’ The mission is in front of us. ¡Siempre Adelante!”

BISHOP DAVID P. TALLEY, CATHOLIC DIOCESE OF MEMPHIS

John Edwards really is “just a guy in the pew.” He lives it. And he shows how we can live it, too. That’s why his ministry is so vital, so timely and so important. It’s down to earth, applicable and goes right to the gut! In a word...it’s REAL."
