Martyr Eustathius of Mtskheta: Faith and Courage in Georgia

from Saints and Scripture · host Saints and Scripture

Today we remember Martyr Eustathius of Mtskheta, a Persian by birth who embraced Christianity in the face of great danger. Once a fire-worshipper named Gvirobandak, he was baptized by Catholicos Samoel and became a devoted Christian in Georgia. Eustathius endured imprisonment, torture, and ultimately martyrdom rather than renounce his faith. His courage and steadfastness inspire us to remain faithful even under pressure.Support the show
