Episode Details

Corpus Christi forces us to face the only question that matters: is the Eucharist really Jesus Christ or just a symbol. We trace stories of saints, martyrs, and our own doubts to show why Jesus stays close to us in the Blessed Sacrament. 
• Flannery O’Connor’s line that cuts through vague belief 
• the Real Presence as the center of Catholic faith and worship 
• martyrs of Abitinae and why no one dies for a metaphor 
• the honesty of “I believe; help my unbelief” 
• Carlo Acutis and Eucharistic miracles as faith awakeners 
• love that refuses long distance and why Jesus gives the Eucharist 
• John 6 and disciples walking away from the hard teaching 
• bringing marriage pain, grief, loneliness, and fear to adoration 
• Thomas Aquinas and the Corpus Christi hymns still prayed today 
• St Tarcisius and the cost of protecting the host
