Helping Christians witness Jesus by knowing & encountering Him.
Bringing focus to “All & Only Jesus” for people in general, seekers, evangelizing churches/parishes/religious organizations, seminary and university formators and clergy.
There’s a lot of stress out there—along with half-truths and falsehoods. Here is who we are:
We are Bible-based
We believe all that Jesus said and did, and we strive to follow and model it in communion with His Church, based on apostolic tradition and the light of the Holy Spirit. This reverence includes Jesus’ literal teaching on His true Body and Blood, the Lamb of the New Covenant, who redeems us, transforms us, and feeds our souls.
With theologian, apologist, and Scripture scholar Romuald B. Simeone, you will learn the history, theology, and exegetical meaning of the writings of the beloved Apostle John.
In Dr. Chiara’s classes, you will learn how to apply Scripture personally: how to listen with Jesus’ Heart for what He is saying to you right now, in the concrete realities you are facing—family strain, caregiving burdens, betrayal, discouragement, fear, or confusion—so you can hear Jesus instead of only talking at Jesus.
Dialog International Press, LLC, our publishing division, can provide resources to get you started.
How does this happen?
First, by learning how close Jesus is to you.
Second, by letting His Word speak to you in a way that drives out fear and steadies your heart.
Third, by experiencing Him daily in your life so you can also pass Him on.
Dear Faithful Catholic Colleagues!
I have a free gift for you, a very special triple feature. I am so excited to bring this to our devoted followers for the first time!

Romuald B. Simeone
Catholic missionary and evangelist Romuald B. Simeone presents on the Gospel of John from Bible, Love Letters From Your Father. This is followed by his two sessions on the “dialogue method” that Jesus uses in the Gospel of John to witness to people.
Participants will learn how to engage with people of all persuasions — even atheists and secularists. Jesus changed the culture to reflect His own Image, extending His grace to the whole human race through His “dialogue method,” not only to the Jews.
We can do this too, just as St. Paul did in his 39-year ministry, extending the Gospel to Greek, Asiatic, and Mediterranean cultures on his way to Spain. St. Peter, as well, was transformed by the Holy Spirit from the impetuous fisherman of the Gospel of Mark into the apostolic teacher we hear in his letters.
Jesus made Himself, and all who follow Him, into a new public culture that includes diverse peoples in His Father’s embrace. He is our Witness-Model, and His command is clear: “Go!” (Reproduced from the ITEST website)

Watch this video and we’ll get you started. Then you may want to listen to some of the other free videos by Romuald Simeone about the Gospel of John, as he tells you about what’s happening and puts it all together for you in a remarkable and brilliant fashion.
Romuald B. Simeone, author of Bible, Love Letters From Your Father, Books of John, explains how to use his videos and tools to understand & apply the Gospel of John.
Here is a summary of what you just heard, in case you wish to print a copy
Wonder how to use my videos and book? Here’s your instant guide!
First step: pray for inspiration from the Holy Spirit to have an open heart, to hear with your heart, what Jesus might be saying to you personally.
The goal for you, brother or sister in Christ is to:
- Learn about Jesus.
This leads to building a relationship with Him, alive in your life.
- Love Him more as you learn about Him.
This leads to developing a heart of gratitude, complete trust, and happy conformity to Him.
- Follow Him more closely.
This involves learning how to apply His Life Lessons to your own life.
- Witness to His presence and activity in my life to others.
This involves a certain enthusiastic energy that comes from being committed to Him as a person, viewing His ways as making life significantly better, seeing this relationship as the most important thing in my life, that my life shifts to reorganize correspondingly. It also involves being so attached to Him, with loving confidence, that I overcome any shyness or social rejection fears, and just seek to please Him. In so doing I become more effective, creative, positive and influential with others important to me, and even to new people I meet. I also learn to create opportunities, so others will also know, love and follow Him. This does not happen by me only being a “good person”, it happens by transparently living for a specific person they identify to be Jesus.
So, now that you know the goal, let’s implement it.
Day 1 and thereafter, listen first to the video session, in order. Make a few notes of what speaks to you and why. Then, read that section in the Love Letters From Your Father, Gospel of John. It follows right along with the same verses as in your New Testament. What is written will amplify the Gospel verses with the history, background, biblical exegesis, teachings of the Fathers of the Church, and interpretation of the Catholic Magisterium (meaning 2,000 plus years’ certain understandings that go straight back to the apostles’ teachings, and their disciples.)
Read, get set, go!
Pray!
Listen!
Read!
Then take a notebook, date it, write the chapter and verses you listened to and read with today’s date on it, and summarize what it means to you in your life. How does it speak to you about who Jesus is to you? And what He calls you toward? Perhaps what you need to shift.
And ideas?
Write!
Then the rest of the day, think about it from time to time. At the end of the day, re-read what you wrote. Any new ideas?
Perhaps consider sharing it with someone you love and trust. Ready?
Go share!
Next day—d0 the same. Do not worry if some days it does not speak to you as much. That’s part of the test of you being faithful. It’s not always milk and honey. The faithful part is, you believe Jesus’ words to you when He is speaking about prayer requests that conform to His will. “Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7
You are asking, seeking and knocking. That’s what it’s all about. Just continue faithfully doing it, and you will reap the benefit of the secrets of the saints. It is not more complicated than that. You don’t need to be a scholar. That’s why I wrote, at the request of Archbishop Tomas Clavel, Panamanian hero bishop who had a heart for simple people. Not that you have to be simple either, but we do have to be open, “open like a child”, as Jesus said.
You also don’t need to have a tremendous amount of faith, even just a little bit, and God Almighty will intervene in your life and do the rest. You will see.
Do you want that for yourself? You can “get it”, by “getting God”. Give what I suggest a try, and see for yourself.
God bless you and I will personally pray for everyone who subscribes to a daily reading of “Bible, Love Letters From Your Father, Gospel of John”.
Having been a foreign mission catechist in 24 countries and experiencing many different types of people, taken hostage, rescued by loving Buddhists, and embraced by families in a heavenly leper Thai village, I would say I’ve experienced many different things, including helping mistresses of mafia leaders get free and change their lives, reconcile families with runaways, and reaching out for fascinating interchanges that have influenced and changed diehard atheists. Mind you, not by me, but only and always by the grace of my Lord, Jesus the Christ.
Never fear, He is with you!! God bless you!

Books & Articles by Romuald B. Simeone
Bible: Love Letters From Your Father, Books of John
The Books of John are a treasury of Jesus’ ongoing Presence; they offer His connecting guidance in every vicissitude of one’s life journey. As personal “Love Letters from the Father” they serve as inspiration and instruction…gifting the Redeeming Savior of all to be one’s own Mentor.
They are Evangelical Tools to pass on Christ’s Good News of Salvation to those still wandering and seeking, and to accomplish on-going conversion to be totally and completely Christian. They are a verse-by-verse Catholic commentary written to illuminate the text through the Church’s theological and historical tradition, especially patristic insights. In addition to direct commentary, the author employs reverent narrative reconstruction and anthropomorphic scene-description as a pedagogical aid to clarify context, motives, and theological meaning.
Serious seekers of Christ, catechists, priests and pastors, preachers, retreat masters, home-schoolers, bible study leaders, and those generally seeking a deeper walk with Christ, will find these works which are a historical inspiring and life-changing.
Please Note:
We are in the process of revising ‘Bible, Love Letters from Your Father – Books of John’ for resubmission to Church authority. New editions coming soon, pending ecclesiastical approval

Jesus’ initial and youngest apostle sets the reality of His divine Sonship with the extensive prophetic proofs of Christ’s Messianic identity. John relates and witnesses Jesus’ personal miraculous contact with humanity, narrating the tragedy of public acceptance and leadership resistance that ends in murderous rejection. On the Cross Jesus fulfills His Father’s Plan of Redemption and establishes ongoing Christianity.

It will take decades to notate all the citations. This has been acquired over the lifetime of the author who has studied biblical studies & exegesis over 70 years. The same for the next two volumes.
