Episode Details

Broadcasting from Rome on the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes and the World Day of Prayer for the Sick, Fr Billy reflects on Jesus’ call to be “the salt of the earth” and “the light of the world.” Looking at Holocaust Memorial Day and the lessons of 20th-century Europe, he asks a challenging question: what happens when Christian faith becomes private, passive, or silent? Drawing on the witness of martyrs such as Maximilian Kolbe, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Edith Stein, this episode explores the public dimension of faith and our responsibility to shape culture with truth and charity.

In the second half, Fr Billy turns to the powerful witness of Saint Agatha, reflecting on martyrdom, dignity, and prayer for victims and survivors of abuse. A thought-provoking and deeply pastoral episode on courage, culture, suffering, and the enduring light of Christ.
