Listen "St James the Greater"
Episode Synopsis
On this episode, we delve into the life and legacy of Saint James the Greater, celebrated by the Catholic Church on July 25. Born in Galilee to Zebedee and Salome, James was a fisherman who became one of the first disciples called by Jesus to become a "fisher of men." Known for his fiery temper, which earned him and his brother John the nickname "sons of thunder," James was part of Jesus' inner circle, witnessing pivotal moments such as the Transfiguration and the Agony in the Garden. His commitment to spreading the gospel led to his martyrdom in Jerusalem around 44 AD, making him the first apostle to die for his faith.
