Duke Godfrey of Bouillon and the First Crusade

Send us a text!The preeminent leader of the First Crusade, Duke Godfrey of Bouillon perfectly encapsulated C.S. Lewis' chivalric ideal—he was both fierce and meek, the ideal picture of masculine knighthood. After Pope Urban's call to arms, Godfrey and many others would make the epic journey to the Holy Land, where they would attempt to capture Jerusalem. In this episode, we talk about Godfrey's leadership, epic victories, and the retaking of Jerusalem.Did you know supporters of the show get ad-free video and audio episodes delivered early and access to our patron exclusive show the After Hours and interactive live streams with Eric and Brian?      https://www.patreon.com/thekingshallThis episode is sponsored by: Lux Coffee Company; Caffeinating the New Christendom with artisan roast coffee.
