Eugene Aucoin is a published author whose first book won Asia’s Best Book of the Year in Theology in 2020: The Cardinal Sin Award. His book, "Has Science Killed God? – Three Powerful Ideas that Will Reignite your Faith" (Manila: St Pauls’ Books, 2019), was also published in French in Canada in July 2021.
Since retiring from the Government of Canada as a National Director of Human Resources Programs, Aucoin’s unique expertise in nurturing human potential as a practitioner and educator has led to his many invitations to speak in the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, and to teach at the university master’s level. He has trained thousands of leaders on the inspirational topics he is now applying to his writing.
Aucoin’s next two manuscripts ("The Appeal of God", and "Are You Wired to Believe or to Doubt?") were among the five finalists for the Best New Canadian Manuscript of 2020 by The Word Awards of Canada. His writings on Christian inspirational and personal development topics have earned high praise from two chief justices of provincial supreme courts, chief scientists, deans of theology, an archbishop, the President of the Canadian Federation of Philosophers and Theologians, and others, as well as a five-star rating from the "Readers' Favorite Reviews" in the U.S.
Aucoin’s aspiration is to write many more books on Christian spirituality that transform the minds and hearts of his readers, and to continue giving presentations and webinars on this topic to the general public.
