Summary

In this episode of Pints with Aquinas, I chat with my dear friend, Sr. Natalia, who is a Byzantine nun. We talk about what it's like to be a religious sister. WARNING: In this conversation, we get real, real quickly. If you're a young woman discerning God's will in your life, then this conversation is ABSOLUTELY for you. Or if you're someone who just loves conversion stories about people radically loving Jesus, then you're going to LOVE this episode.

0:00.0	Good day and welcome to Pints with Aquinas.
0:03.6	My name is Matt Frad.
0:05.3	And today I'll be joined around the bar table by my good friend, sister Natalia, who is a beautiful young Byzantine nun.
0:13.8	And we talk about what it's like to be a nun because I don't know, never had the chance, because the church is sexist.
