God alone satisfies, as Thomas Aquinas once said, money, friends, reputations and jobs- those are all nice-to-haves.
What would you be willing to endure for your beliefs? This episode of 'Why Did Peter Sink?' takes us back to the second century, where Christian martyrs in Lyon faced horrific persecution yet held firm in their faith. The stories of Blandina and Attalus are at the heart of this discussion, showcasing their unwavering commitment to their spiritual convictions despite brutal trials.
Host Peter Flies doesn't just recount history; he draws parallels to our modern-day struggles, asking listeners to consider what truly matters in life. Is it reputation, wealth, or job security? Or is it something deeper, like the salvation of souls? By reflecting on the sacrifices of these early Christians, the episode invites you to think about your own values and the strength of your beliefs.
With a blend of historical narrative and thought-provoking questions, this episode offers both inspiration and a challenge: to find what you would stand up for, no matter the cost.
