Listen "Relics"
Episode Synopsis
Timothy welcomes Brother Richard back to the show for a discussion about relics. We discuss the types of relics; relics in different religious traditions; the provenance of relics; relics which disappear and reappear like apports; relic copies; the revelation of relics; and much more. Brother Richard also shares some wonderful personal stories of his own experiences with relics.
