Blessed Louis Allemand (16 September): Butler's Lives of the Saints

About this sermon

On September 16, the Church honors Blessed Louis Alaman, a 15th-century cardinal whose life reveals the mercy of God and the triumph of repentance. Though deeply involved in the political struggles of the Great Western Schism and the turbulent Council of Basel, Blessed Louis Alaman is remembered for his virtues, humility, and unwavering devotion to the faith. This episode from The Lives of the Saints by Father Albin reflects how the Church judges sanctity not by worldly victories, but by the purity of heart, interior holiness, and sincere repentance. Despite errors in judgment and political struggles, Blessed Louis Alaman remained a man of deep prayer, penance, and charity—eventually reconciled with the Church and honored at the altars. 🙏 Learn how his faith and works of mercy during times of plague, his defense of the Immaculate Conception, and his return to humility made him an example for us all. 0:00 Introduction 0:11 Blessed Louis Alaman – Early Life 1:01 The Great Western Schism & Councils 2:00 Rise in the Church & Cardinalate 3:24 Opposition to Pope Eugene IV 4:37 Anti-Pope Felix & Schism 5:56 Defense of the Immaculate Conception 6:49 Return to Unity & Repentance 7:30 Death, Miracles, and Cult Approval ✨ The Feast of Blessed Louis Alaman is cele https://sensusfidelium.com/the-lives-of-the-fathers-martyrs-and-other-principal-saints/september/ Get Butler's Lives of the Saints here: https://loretopublications.idevaffiliate.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=102&url=1 #BlessedLouisAlaman #SaintOfTheDay #LivesOfTheSaints #CatholicChurch #CatholicHistory #GreatWesternSchism #CouncilOfBasel #ImmaculateConception #CatholicSaints #CatholicFaith 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ✝️ SUPPORT THE MISSION 🙏 Donate https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 📬 Free Catholic Newsletter https://sensusfidelium.com/newsletter/ 📰 Read on Substack https://sensusfidelium.substack.com/ ──────────────────── 📺 WATCH & READ 📺 Sensus Fidelium App https://sensusfidelium.tv/ 📚 Sensus Fidelium Press https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ 👕 Official Merchandise https://sensusfidelium.com/merchandise/ ──────────────────── 🤝 PARTNER WITH US 📣 Advertise on Sensus Fidelium https://sensusfidelium.com/advertise-with-sensus-fidelium/ 🎤 Invite Steve Cunningham to Speak https://sensusfidelium.com/speaking/ ⛪ Parish Formation & Consultation https://sensusfidelium.com/for-parishes/ ──────────────────── 🌎 CATHOLIC COMMUNITY ✝️ Trusted Catholic Businesses https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
