This week\\u2019s episode:

\\u201cBlessed are They\\u201d: St. Magdalene of Nagasaki

\\u201cAmong Women\\u201d Guest: Sarah Christmyer

In this episode we ponder the call based on the title of Sarah Christmyer\\u2019s new book Becoming Women of the Word. It\\u2019s a wonderful conversation filled with the story of Rahab\\u2019s faith, as found in the book of Joshua. This is the kind of faith that calls us to trust in God amidst the storms of life. Speaking of hardships, in our Blessed Are They segment, \\xa0you\\u2019ll learn about the life and faith of one of the Japanese martyrs, St. Magdalene of Nagasaki.
