About this listen

In this episode of Heroic Lives, we look at the remarkable life of Saint Basil of Caesarea, known as "Basil the Great." A bishop, theologian, monastic founder, and advocate for the poor, Saint Basil played a pivotal role in shaping the early Church’s understanding of the Trinity and Christian charity.


We explore how Basil's conviction to defend the truth of the Nicene Creed led him to boldly stand against imperial pressure, as well as his deep commitment to social justice! His monastic rule and theological writings continue to shape Eastern Christianity to this day.


Saint Basil's life challenges us to reflect on our own faith and actions. Are we living with the same courage and compassion that he showed in his ministry?
