St. Theodore Tyro (9 November): Butler's Lives of the Saints

About this sermon

Discover the inspiring story of Saint Theodorus Tyro, the brave Roman soldier who became a glorious martyr for Christ. Drawn from The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler, this episode recounts how St. Theodorus—newly enlisted in the Roman army—chose faith over fear, defying emperors and idols. Learn about his steadfast courage under torture, his miraculous intercession after death, and his lasting veneration across East and West. St. Gregory of Nyssa’s homily on his feast day reveals the miraculous power of his relics and prayers that defended nations and cured the afflicted. Join us in honoring this valiant witness who boldly proclaimed, “Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, is my God.” 🙏 Feast Day: November 9 (Latin Church) | February 17 (Eastern Church) 📖 Source: The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler 🏛️ Saint: Theodorus Tyro (St. Theodore the Recruit) 🔥 Martyrdom: 306 AD – Burnt alive for his unwavering faith ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Introduction 0:11 – The Feast of St. Theodorus Tyro 0:17 – St. Gregory of Nyssa’s Homily and Intercession 0:50 – Miracles and Veneration at His Tomb 1:46 – Early Life and Roman Military Service 2:26 – The Saint’s Bold Confession of Faith 3:00 – Burning of the Pagan Temple 3:40 – Arrest, Torture, and Perseverance in Prayer 4:01 – Martyrdom by Fire – The Final Trial 4:09 – Feast Day and Relics in Brindisi & Gaeta 4:30 – Legacy and Patronage of St. Theodorus Tyro https://sensusfidelium.com/the-lives-of-the-fathers-martyrs-and-other-principal-saints/november/ Get Butler's Lives of the Saints here: https://loretopublications.idevaffiliate.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=102&url=1 #SaintTheodorusTyro #SaintTheodoreTheRecruit #LivesOfTheSaints #CatholicSaints #OrthodoxSaints #ChristianMartyr #EarlyChurch #FaithAndCourage #StGregoryOfNyssa #SensusFidelium #FatherAlbanButler #SaintsStories #MartyrsOfChrist #ChristianFaith #SaintOfTheDay 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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.
