-
- Christianity
In this episode, Rosemary and Sean give their picks for the GOATS or Greatest Of All Time Saints. They also share the stories of some of their less-known personal favorites and Rosemary interviews special-guest Father James Martin, Jesuit priest and author of “My Life with the Saints,” about the real-life humanity of the saints and the miraculous sermons of baby saints Rumbold and Ambrose. We also learn how the cinematic life of the Irish poet-saint Columba led to a landmark copyright infringement case, how burying a statue of St. Joseph upside down can help you sell your house, how praying to St. Anne can literally save your life, and how modern-day bohemian Brooklynite Dorothy Day could be on her way to becoming a saint, despite having an abortion in her wild younger days as a hard-drinking riot girl in Greenwich Village.
