The Saints are much more than a 2-dimensional holy card, perfect from the moment of their creation. On the Cannonball Podcast we explore the personalities and mysteries of the Saints of the Catholic Church, and ways we collaborate with them here and now in building the Kingdom of God. Brad Farmer of Apex Ministries and Br. Jude Emmanuel of the Franciscan Capuchins guide you through their stories and illuminate the possibilities open to all of us.
Brad Farmer is a co-founder of APeX Ministries, an evangelization and apologetics ministry that has been his life’s work since 1996. Combining juggling, comedy, theology, and a passion to dive deep into the lives of the Saints, Brad has entertained, evangelized, and inspired in all 50 states, 5 Canadian provinces, China, and Peru at thousands of Catholic events. He is also the Director of Youth Ministry at Our Lady of Loreto in the Archdiocese of Denver.

Bro. Jude Emmanuel A. Quinto, O.F.M.Cap.
Br. Jude, a Capuchin Franciscan lay brother in formation, entered the Mid-America Province of Saint Conrad in July of 2014. After a brief departure from the Order in 2017, he re-entered in August of 2018 and re-made first profession on December 25, 2018. Growing up, he understood his devotion to Saints as friendships with them that have brought him closer to a relationship with Christ. His love for the Saints has brought him to be the custodian to several relics of Saints within the Province. He currently serves as Provincial Archivist Assistant, Assistant Vocation Coordinator, and Spiritual Assistant to the Third Order Secular Franciscans of the Penitents of Saint Francis, alongside other gigs. He currently resides in Denver, Colorado.
