| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:23.7 | Hey there, Sprouts. |
| 0:27.6 | Today is Wednesday, January 20th, 2021. |
| 0:35.9 | Today is also the feast day of St. Sebastian, an early Christian martyr who lived a heroic life. |
| 0:42.8 | St. Sebastian is oftentimes depicted in art, tied to a tree and pierced with arrows. |
| 0:45.6 | But that's not actually how he died. |
| 0:49.9 | St. Sebastian is thought to have been a soldier in the Roman government, |

| 1:41.1 | The emperor once again sentenced him to death, this time by clubbing, and this time |
| 1:47.0 | St. Sebastian died. St. Sebastian has long been venerated as a great martyr and hero of our |
| 1:54.1 | faith because he was so brave and he stood up even when death was certain. St. Sebastian, pray for us. Now, this week on the |
| 2:04.8 | Catholic Express podcast, we have been talking about who Jesus is and pointing to evidence in the |
| 2:10.8 | gospel that he was God. He is God and he was the promised Messiah. We've already talked about this because God alone, |
| 2:20.4 | like Jesus Christ, is able to see our knees and respond with abundant love. We also saw through |
