In this episode of Every Single Saint, we, Winston and Kaitlyn, take you on a journey through the lives of some incredible early saints from the third century. We dive into the stories of figures like St. Thespesius of Cappadocia, St. Urban, St. Demetrius of Alexandria, and St. Calepodius, sharing what we know about their contributions to the Church and their steadfast faith. From martyrdom to miracles, these saints faced intense challenges and made a lasting impact, and we reflect on how their courage and devotion still inspire us today.
As we go through each saint’s story, we also talk about our own experience with our youth confirmation teams, who inspire us to live out our faith just as these early saints did. In a more relaxed style, we share little-known facts, some laughter, and heartfelt prayers, making this episode both informative and a personal reflection on seeking holiness in the everyday. We hope you’ll join us in honoring these saints and that their stories encourage you, too, to grow in faith.
