OUR SPEAKER
Father Nathan Cromly
Father Nathan Cromly, a priest currently serving in the Archdiocese of Denver and president of the Saint John Institute, has spent the last 20+ years boldly answering the Gospel’s challenge to reveal how faith can transform our daily activities into a daring act of love for God.
Through his study of Scripture and the spiritual teachings of the Church, Father Cromly developed the AUDEOTM Approach to Leadership which proposes a practical path to transforming the leadership we exercise in the family, workplace, and culture into an instrument of Christ’s love. Balancing an inspiring rhetoric with his down-to-earth demeanor, Father Cromly stewards a nationwide network of Catholics who Dare Great Things for Christ™ in the professional world, in their families, and in their personal lives.
Father Cromly is a speaker, author, retreat leader, podcast host and occasional outdoorsman. Originally from Toledo, OH, Father Cromly is grateful to be a priest and hopes that his work & his vocation will bring a smile to the Blessed Mother and to you.
