Beyond the BulletinEpisode 75: Episode 75: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #27 - Wood of the True CrossAs Catholics, we know what happened after Jesus was crucified, died, and His body taken down from the cross to be placed in a tomb. What you may not know, is what happened to that empty, bloodstained cross.
The Romans had perfected the art of a crucifixion by the time Jesus was condemned to die, but where did this gruesome method of execution come from? Why did the high priests specifically want the Romans to kill Jesus? What can we learn from Jesus' embrace of the cross?
A piece of the pinewood that Christ Himself...2021-04-0222 min
Beyond the BulletinEpisode 74: Episode 74: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #26 - St. PeterThe Prince of the Apostles. The First Pope. The Rock upon which Jesus would build His church.
Saint Peter is mentioned a whopping 187 times in the New Testament. From the moment he first encountered Jesus the Nazarene while fishing on the Sea of Galilee, until the moment he was crucified upside down, Peter was a faithful follower of the Lord; but that's not to say he was without fault.
So many of the most powerful moments and lessons from the Bible involve Peter. He was a bold, brash, and stubborn disciple who we have much...2021-03-2622 min
Beyond the BulletinEpisode 73: Episode 73: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #25 - St. Thomas the ApostleWe don't give the "doubt" of Doubting Thomas enough credit. One of the twelve apostles, Thomas was a passionate follower of Jesus - three moments in the Gospel of John show that clearly. But when we dive into the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection, it becomes clear what led Thomas to tell the other apostles, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
We can learn so much from the boldness and determination of Thom...2021-03-1913 min
Beyond the BulletinEpisode 72: Episode 72: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #24 - St. Francis of AssisiWith how much we know about Saint Francis of Assisi, it can be hard to grasp an accurate picture of the great saint. We know more about him than any other medieval saint, but all of the awe-inspiring stories of him – founding the Franciscan Order, preaching to the birds, receiving the stigmata, and becoming one of the most venerated religious figures in Christianity – all flow from one source: living the gospel life demonstrated through the utter and complete charity of Jesus.
The fingerprints of Saint Francis are all over this project - his influence helped form other sain...2021-03-1220 min
Beyond the BulletinEpisode 71: Episode 71: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #23 - St. Mary MagdaleneThe twelve apostles are some of the most well-known figures in Christianity, but only one woman is known as "the Apostle to the Apostles."
Saint Mary Magdalene, the first person Jesus appeared to after His resurrection, is named in the Bible more than any other woman - including Mary, the mother of Jesus. After having seven demons cast out of her by Jesus, she became a dedicated follower, even remaining with him upon Golgotha.
Time, and the popularity of the name Mary in the Biblical times, have created a confusing reputation for this great saint...2021-03-1111 min

His contributions to the Catholic Church – from his writings, teachings, restoration of the Franciscan Order and organization of the Council of Lyon – are immeasurable in their impact, and he is remembered as one of the most brilliant minds of his time.
What sets him apart among the other great minds of his time is how he reinforced that intellectual ability, while good and valid, is inferior to the direction and affections of the heart...2021-03-0908 min
Beyond the BulletinEpisode 69: Episode 69: Saint Anthony Relic Reveal #21 - St. Maria GorettiThe embodiment of 'pure of heart'. A facilitator of countless miracles. The youngest canonized saint in the Catholic Church. The Little Saint of Great Mercy.
There are many ways to describe Saint Maria Goretti, but words can hardly describe the courage, mercy, and sanctity of this 11-year-old virgin martyr. Her story is tragic yet inspirational, and her spirit of sacrifice kept her faithful to God, even to the point of death.

Born to two African slaves and illiterate, he would later possess a knowledge of Sacred Scripture and complex theological questions that astonished priests and scholars alike. Growing in fame for his miracles and teachings, he was meek, and chose to travel at night to avoid recognition. Facing persecution throughout his life due to being “il Moro,” or dark skinned, he chose to be a peacemaker, and is remembered for his racial tolerance.

She was so moved by the idea of pursuing a life after the Gospel, that she did what any sensible person would do: run away from her wealthy, noble family to join a religious order, cut off her hair, and when her family tried to make her return home, cling desperately to an altar until they give up.

The transition from the Dark Ages to the Middle Ages had ushered in a plethora of new changes, but the theological aspects of faith and the philosophical principles of reason were clashing heavily within society. But when a young Thomas Aquinas finally escaped from the castle his family had been holding him captive in (a story which you MUST hear), he set off to bridge the gap between faith and reason, and would go on to become one of the greatest philosophers of the world...2021-01-2918 min

A prayerful hermit who scoffed in the face of vicious demon attacks?

Sure, you may not have the stigmata, be able to bilocate, have been friends with a future pope or consecrated yourself to Jesus at the age of 5, but answer this- Can you pray? Can you receive the Eucharist? Can you love Jesus Christ? If the answer to those three questions is yes, then you are on your way to following in the footsteps of this luminous Italian friar.

What he didn't plan for, was to be captured at sea by pirates, sold into slavery, escape a few years later, found a religious order and charity organization, and become known as “The Apostle of Charity” from his dedication to caring for the poor.

Many see her spoiled early childhood years, or read about her 'little way' and wrongly assume that she was a meek, timid little nun. This couldn't be further from the truth.

St. Frances Xavier Cabrini encountered hardship and difficulty at nearly every turn of her faith journey, but she was undeterred from following the will of God. The first American citizen to be canonized a saint, she was fearless, resourceful and passionate about serving those in need.
