“God or the Girl breaks out of the reality TV mold to give an accurate and moving portrayal of 4 faithful, Catholic men in search of their vocation. It is refreshing to see the Catholic faith and the quest for holiness shown in such a positive light. It is a beautiful witness to the movement of God in our secular society. I highly recommend this series for young men and women seeking more than the fleeting pleasures of this world.” Lisa Epperson
"This show will provide a great way to engage young adults to go deeper in their search for God and service to the church. 'God and the Girl' is a relevant, honest look at the tough questions that our generation faces when it comes to the issue of vocations, relationships, and life choices." Paul Jamblowski
“God or the Girl is a wonderful insight into what goes into making the decision to study for the priesthood today. It brings to light the very real issues and struggles that guys considering the priesthood often face. Though I witness this process all the time, I think those who watch will be fascinated and intrigued by the often misunderstood path towards priesthood. On a scale of one to ten rosaries beads, I definitely give it a ten!” Fr. Len Plazewski
“God or the Girl helps the viewer realize that God does call healthy, vibrant and energetic young men to a life contrary to the cultural norms. That is the beauty and blessing of God’s call. The challenge is to respond honestly to the Lord. This series will also help men who are discerning but are afraid to come forward. It gives permission to other young men to look at their lives, their relationship with the Lord and to move in the direction that is best for them” Fr. Jim Bilot
"The four young men we meet on 'God or the Girl' move and inspire us as they discern their vocation for marriage or the priesthood. This program is a refreshing encounter with faith that is fully and joyously alive." Msgr. Francis J. Maniscalco ,
“While we do not endorse media programming, a number of our member priests who viewed the series believe it is a very positive and favorable portrayal of vocation discernment. We’re pleased by the positive portrait of how seriously young Catholics take their faith and how they desire to discern God’s call for their life commitment.” Steven Covington
“Contrary to popular opinion, this series will no doubt reveal to its viewers what many in the Church have already know for years, namely, that numerous outgoing, affable, balanced, intelligent and attractive young men are seriously considering a call to serve Christ and His Church as a future Roman Catholic priest. Many of these men are, or are well on their way to become, ‘highly successful’ in the ‘eyes of the world’…but are willing to give up everything for a life which points to a reality ‘beyond this world’.” Fr. Brian Bashista
“Often people think of discernment merely as time in prayer, but the show God or the Girl correctly demonstrates that discernment is a life changing experience. The four men in this show are inspirational in their attempt to follow God, but I am happy to announce that they are the norm of mem looking at the priesthood. Please watch the shows, prepare to be inspired and be ready to be filled with Hope.” Fr. Jeff Coning
“God or the Girl” is an engaging real-life look at four impressive young men trying to decide whether to answer God’s call. It is also the kind of television we’re not used to seeing: a program which treats the subject of religion and faith with respect. Every Catholic will benefit from watching it, and non-Catholics will both enjoy it and learn from it. Carl A. Anderson
“Contrary to secular wisdom which suggests only men who can’t get dates and real jobs become priests, the show makes clear that, if anything, these men have too many options. If they choose the priesthood, it is because it is first in their lives.” Dr. Pia de Solenni
“While presented in the style of a reality TV program, it has none of the lurid sensationalism of the genre. Quite the contrary. This is a thoroughly respectful look at the trials young men experience when considering a vocation to the priesthood.” Brian St. Paul
“…3½… out of four…” “…delivers a mesmerizing portrait of sincere souls in quest of their true selves…” "...respectful, decent and moving... " “…stands out as a breath of sanctified air…” "...watching these men wrestle with this life-changing decision should be required viewing for critics of the church as well as the faithful..." "...a surprisingly reverential treatment of a profound life passage..." “…the most intimate and revealing treatment of the vocational process ever presented…” "Whatever your convictions, you have to respect the decision facing these young men..." |
