Need help addressing homosexuality and or transgenderism in light of Catholic teachings and personal witness? No Problem! That is what Hudson does. Since early 2013, Hudson has been sharing his journey of coming back home to the Catholic Church after realizing he needed to walk away from his former "LGBTQ+ is who I am" mindset - and all that came with that. Since then, for the glory of God, he has been blessed to present for multiple Courage International and other diocesan conferences, in addition to Theology of the Body Institute and Pints with Aquinas online conferences.
Hudson has presented for multiple clergy study days and workshops for schools (for staff and students) and has been requested to be a reader/consultant/editor for 13 books that touch on navigating LGBTQ+ matters in light of the Catholic faith, including those by Christopher West, Prof. Janet E. Smith, Fr. Mike Schmitz, Jason Evert, LifeTeen, and other persons/groups, including one member of the American Association of Catholic Scholars. His 60 written articles have appeared on National Catholic Register (EWTN), Chastity Project, Ascension, One Peter Five, CRISIS Magazine, and Catholic World Report, among other notable Catholic websites. Likewise, he has been a silent co-author for items found in Catholic Digest, St. Paul's Street Evangelization, and the now archived Catholic Answers Forums. As well, his testimony of God's amazing grace has been featured on EWTN, Ascension, Chastity Project, Human Life International, The Terry & Jesse Show, The Ruth Institute, FORMED/Lighthouse.
Hudson is also a member of the Fellowship of Catholic Scholars, and is the founder of Something More Beautiful- a ministerial "landing page" for people who experience same-sex attractions and or transgender inclinations who want to know there is more to life than "being an LGBTQ+ Catholic" and that their potential for holy vocation to holy marriage or religious life is worthy of pursuit though downstream from the authentic pursuit of chastity. Most recently, Hudson has finished a four-year term as an elected Catholic School Board Trustee, and is now, as of 2025-2026, re-entering active ministry as a speaker. His next big speaking event is FOCUS's SEEK2026 Conference in Denver, CO - all glory be to God!
