Catholic speaker Tarek Saab, former contestant on Season 5 of the Apprentice, and President of T. Saab Media, was the headliner for an uncharacteristically small Boston Catholic Men's Conference (approximately 2,000 men) on April 19th, 2008, which found itself competing with the visit of Pope Benedict XVI to New York City. Saab nevertheless gave a rousing speech about his journey to the faith in his twenties, mixing anecdotes with scripture and light-hearted humor. Saab signed copies of his new book GUT CHECK: Confronting Love, Work, & Manhood In Your Twenties throughout the day. Noted one star-struck attendee, "That was the best speech I've ever heard, and we've had some great speakers come through here, from Hahn to Caviezel to Corapi. He's just so relevant to the challenges men face today." Patrons waited in line for up to 20 minutes to meet the Catholic speaker. The popular Catholic speaker, perhaps the most famous Catholic in his generaton, is represented by CMG Booking. The title of his talk was: "The Battle of the Ordinary." Peter Kreeft, Boston College professor and well-published theologian, rounded out the day with a more professorial speech.Book Description You’re fired! Only a few years into a career marked by dazzling early success, Tarek Saab’s life took a dramatic turn with his selection for Donald Trump’s reality show, The Apprentice. Viewers soon noticed something unusual about Tarek. Throughout the chaos and pressure—including several boardroom showdowns with Trump—Tarek displayed a forgotten kind of manhood. In a new book, he shares his hard-won insights into love, work, and manhood and their source in a faith that is ever old, ever new. The biggest problem by far facing men in their twenties is the crisis of manhood. Offering a completely new take on the so-called “quarter-life crisis,” Tarek describes his reluctant confrontation with career, relationships, and spiritual disillusionment and reveals the surprising truths he learned about what it means to be a man. A distinctly modern-day Confessions, Gut Check is the wry and candid self-examination of a man whose life, despite its extraordinary twists, is full of lessons for ordinary young men. Tarek’s captivating tale reveals a young man with many talents and temptations whose saving grace is a relentless pursuit of truth and the daring to be counter-cultural. Gritty, comic, utterly believable—Gut Check is not the usual Christian fairy tale. Gut Check is a manual for manhood lived the hard way. It is a book for men who never read and for men who think they have read it all. If you think you know what you really want, are you ready for a gut check?
