Draw out the beauty in the ordinary with Coronation Media’s Co-Founder and Executive Producer, Bill Phillips.
Bill left his Gettysburg address to join The BeatiDudes, Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein, at the Tiny Table in Vatican Valley. He recalls his journey, including the major life events that were put into motion during his time at Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, Maryland, where he studied Theology and Psychology with a minor in fine arts.
Although he did not choose the college for religious reasons, Bill began to deepen his commitment to his faith during his time there. Through his roommate, Gary Gasse, the other Co-Founder of Coronation Media, Bill’s faith was also strengthened, preparing him for the struggles and the joys that would come during those years.
After Bill’s mother was diagnosed with cancer during his undergrad time, he began an intellectual conversion of faith by joining RCIA and reading the Catechism from cover to cover. At the end of his time at Mount St. Mary’s, Bill found his faith, his career, and his wife.
The episode has a surprise ending where each of The BeatiDudes is given one shot to get hired by Bill after pitching new cartoon ideas.
