About this listen
Why do Catholics pray to saints? Deacon Matt Rust tells the amazing story of his special relationship with St. Padre Pio and the miracles that he has seen in his life through intercessory prayer. We talk about the vibrant community of faith with our heavenly brothers and sisters and how their prayers benefit us by virtue of their proximity to God. I ask him about how Christian men can pray to embrace more feminine qualities to be more complete. "We as the body of Christ are the bride of Christ, and so we as a whole take on these feminine, wifely attributes that make us submissive to Christ."
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles." Hebrews 12:1
Padre Pio of Pietrelcina was an Italian Franciscan Capuchin friar, priest, stigmatist, and mystic.
