The Making of a Catholic Priest

How does a man come to realize that God has called him to the priesthood?

In this brand-new film from Word on Fire, Fr. Stephen Gadberry presents his life’s journey to the priesthood.

From his Arkansas upbringing, to his military experience, through his vocational ascent, Fr. Gadberry shares his trials, tragedy, and ultimate joy, answering Christ’s call to engage the culture and spread the Gospel message.
