St. Abo of Tblisi, St Thorfinn, Bl. Eurosia Fabris & Bl. Nathalan of Aberdeen (8 January)

About this sermon

In this powerful and reflective talk, we explore the hidden beauty of the saints—men and women who lived heroic Christian lives across history, many of whom remain unknown to the world but fully known to God. Beginning with Saint Abo (Addo) of Tbilisi, a Muslim convert to Catholic Christianity who gave his life as a martyr in 8th-century Georgia, this talk journeys through centuries of Church history to uncover saints who lived courageously in persecution, charity, prayer, work, and family life. We hear moving stories of: A closet convert who chose martyrdom over denial A 4th-century hermit who lived true Christian charity A bishop who repented of heresy A farmer-hermit who found God through working the land A humble Norwegian saint revealed only after death And Blessed Eurosia Fabris, a wife and mother of eleven who lived profound holiness through ordinary family life This talk also reflects deeply on: The true meaning of work before and after the Fall Why hard work isn’t the curse—fruitless work is How prayer is possible even in overwhelming family life Why sanctity doesn’t require fame, but fidelity How God gives us love first, so we can give it back to Him These saints are not distant legends—they are proof that holiness is possible for you, right where you are. 🙏 May their lives inspire you to deeper prayer, greater courage, and a stronger love for God. 00:00 – Saint Abo (Addo) of Tbilisi & Martyrdom in Georgia 01:31 – Secret Faith vs Public Confession 02:13 – Saint Agathon & True Christian Charity 02:41 – When Communism Only Works: Monastic Life 03:27 – Saint Atticus: Heresy, Repentance, and Hope for Bishops 04:14 – Saint Nathalan of Aberdeen & Farming as Prayer 04:47 – Adam, Work, and the Curse of the Fall 06:55 – Saint Thorfinn: Hidden Holiness Revealed After Death 08:06 – Countless Unknown Saints Known Only to God 08:10 – Blessed Eurosia Fabris: Wife, Mother, Saint 09:26 – Mama Rosa & Radical Hospitality 10:04 – The Lie of “No Time for Prayer” 11:08 – Asking God for the Love to Pray 11:46 – Our Lady’s Help & Final Blessing https://sensusfidelium.us/the-liturgical-year-dom-prosper-gueranger/january/january-8-third-day-within-the-octave-of-the-epiphany/ Please remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
