Today we honor St. Clement of Rome, one of the earliest Popes of the Church and a man formed directly by the Apostles themselves. His leadership, humility, courage, and martyrdom helped shape the foundation of the Catholic faith during a time of persecution and confusion.
In this episode, Saul shares 7 cool facts about St. Clement. You will learn about his connection to St. Peter and St. Paul, his powerful letter to the Corinthians, his defense of apostolic succession, the miracle of water flowing from a rock, and his heroic martyrdom at sea. St. Clement reminds us that holiness is steady, faithful, and rooted in Christ.
