St. John the Baptist

About this episode

The episode reflects on the life and significance of Saint John the Baptist during the Advent season.

We recorded this podcast during Advent but then ended up taking the Advent and Christmas season off from posting... Anyways! Here is an episode of my husband Sam and I reflecting on the life of Saint John the Baptist. Saint John was an absolute powerhouse of a man. He was the "GREATEST man born of a woman" in the words of the one and only Jesus Christ. We did not find words more powerful than that to describe him in this episode but we did take the time to marvel at the role he played in salvation history. Enjoy this episode, check out the website and Saint John the Baptist, pray for us!
