This week's episode about St. Francis has it all! Our hosts share stories of Francis and family drama, papal visits, world travel, physical violence, and more. Most important, however, is that this episode outlines the bulk of Francis's faithful ministry.
Francis, after hearing God's call to rebuild the Church, turns away from the family business (much to his father's chagrin) and vows to devote his life to service and evangelization. While most of us know the basics of St. Francis and his ministry, this episode draws us deeper into the struggles Francis faced, and it emphasizes how Francis's magnetic personality and his devotion to God changed the Church and the world for the better.
