| 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, Spouse. |
| 0:27.1 | Today is Thursday, July 1st, 2021. |
| 0:37.8 | Now, all week we have been talking about two great saints from the early church, Saints Peter and Paul, who we celebrate their death this week. |
| 0:44.0 | They died in the year 67 under the insane Roman emperor Nero. |
| 0:54.6 | We also talked yesterday about the first martyrs in Rome, who were also killed in this time period when Nero burned down the city and blamed it on them. |
| 1:01.2 | Now, we've talked a lot about St. Peter, about his life, his conversion, and also the work that he did in the early church. |
| 1:03.2 | Now, we're going to spend the next two days talking about St. Paul. |
| 1:06.9 | Now, St. Paul had a very different life than St. Peter, and he also came to know Jesus in a very |
| 1:14.1 | different way. We don't meet St. Paul at all in the Gospels. In fact, we have no reason to believe |
| 1:22.0 | that he ever actually encountered Jesus while Jesus was alive. Instead, we begin to hear about St. Paul in the acts of the |
| 1:31.4 | apostles. And we hear that his name is actually Saul. He is a Pharisee, which means that he is |
| 1:38.7 | very well versed on the Jewish faith, that he has studied it, and also that he is meticulous about following the rules. |
| 1:46.9 | If you remember from what Jesus says to the Pharisees in the gospel, he talks to them often about how |
| 1:52.6 | they are so obsessed with the rules, but they do not have a heart of faith. |
| 1:59.3 | The rules to them are more important than anything. So that is |
| 2:04.4 | Paul. Now, Paul is very active in the work of persecuting the early church. In fact, we hear that |
| 2:11.8 | he is present when St. Stephen is martyred, when he is sownoned to death and he also takes on the job of rounding |
| 2:19.9 | up Christians in fact he sets out for the city of damascus determined to go there to find the |
| 2:27.6 | Christians and to return to Jerusalem with them in chains this is his However, on the road to Damascus, something incredible |
| 2:36.9 | happens. He is riding his horse when suddenly there is a blinding light. He falls from his horse |
| 2:44.0 | and he sees a vision of Jesus. And Jesus says to him, why are you persecuting me? Of course, Paul is dumbstruck. He doesn't know who this is. |
