The Hallowed Dead - St. Carlo Acutis

Send us Fan MailWelcome to The Hallowed Dead, a new local show, written and produced by our host, Kevin Sullivan!The Hallowed Dead is an anthology of the lives of the saints. We can all draw wisdom, courage, and inspiration from the lives of people who surrendered everything to God. These men and women embraced sacrifice, endured suffering, and lived with a clarity that comes only from knowing Christ is King. Their stories challenge us. They invite us to look inward, to measure our own lives against eternity, and to remember that everything this world has to offer is nothing compared to the kingdom of heaven."We usually have to travel far back in time to meet our saints, but Saint Carlo Acutis feels like a neighbor. There's no historical digging required here. He lived in our modern cities, used our technology, and faced the same world we see outside our windows today. Our story opens on a sunny day in Milan in the mid-1990s. The city is a blur of high fashion, revving Vespas and the frantic pace of Italian businesses. Amidst this, a four-year-old boy with a mop of curly dark hair and bright, inquisitive eyes is tugging at his mother's sleeve. He isn't pulling her toward a toy store or gelato stand, he's pulling her toward the heavy carved wooden doors of a neighborhood church."Listen Online at divinemercyradio.org/listenOrDownload our app from your app store - Search DivineMercyRadioNChttps://divinemercyradio.org
