St. Catherine of Alexandria (25 November): The Martyr Who Defeated 50 Philosophers

About this sermon

In this video, we dive deep into the powerful life and heroic martyrdom of St. Catherine of Alexandria, one of the most brilliant minds of the early Church and a patron saint of philosophers, students, apologists, and all who seek the truth. Learn how a courageous young woman defeated 50 pagan philosophers, endured brutal torture, converted the emperor’s own wife, and remained faithful to Christ unto death. Her life powerfully demonstrates the harmony of faith and reason, and the Church’s long-standing support for true science, logic, and wisdom rooted in Christ—the Divine Logos. We also explore her miraculous translation to Mount Sinai, her role among the Fourteen Holy Helpers, and the relevance of her witness today.
