In this episode, Mary and KT are joined by Margaux to discuss an article about Servant of God Maria Aristeia Ceccarelli and her experience of intimate partner violence. How ought the Church to tell the stories of women who were heroically holy, even in circumstances they shouldn't have been in? If we uphold someone as a saint so that the living can imitate them, what are the potential dangers of not telling the story of an abused woman carefully? Also includes reflections on what faithfulness in marriage is--and what it isn't.
