In this episode of Unwritten, Trevor sits down with Austin Satrio to talk about how a simple invitation to Adoration transformed a searching student into a potential priest in under 24 hours.
Whether you're someone inspired to see God working in your life, or just curious about the transforming power of God in unexpected encounters, this conversation will encourage you to open your eyes to small opportunities and make simple invitations of faith in Christ Jesus.
What You’ll Hear:
• Austin Satrio, attending SEEK 2025 on behalf of the St. Thomas Moore Teaching Fellowship, meets a student named Michael who traveled alone to the conference, confessed he was not currently practicing his faith, and was unsure why he was even there.
• The gentle, basic invitation Austin and his colleague extended to Michael to visit the Adoration Chapel, suggesting he simply sit in silence for 10 or 15 minutes and “just be present” with the Lord, without needing to say or ask the perfect things.
• Michael’s profound encounter in Adoration, where the Lord very clearly spoke into his heart, affirming His love and telling Michael, "I think you're perfect". This encounter prompted Michael to go to confession for the first time in about 10 years and strongly feel the Lord inviting him to consider the priesthood.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
