Customer Reviews
My Favorite Podcast!!
Heroes of the Faith has quickly become my favorite podcast! Dcn. Long worth summarises so beautifully and eloquently the lives of the saint's stories. After each episode I always feel incredibly uplifted and inspired not only to lean more about each saint, but also to live a more holy life as each Saint examples. Saint Paul says “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” This podcast truly puts my mind on that which is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, and praiseworthy!
