Today, February 23, is the feast of St. Polycarp. He was a huge influence on the Church and a big influence on my conversion to Catholicism. Hear more about this inspiring martyr and Bishop of the Church.

The famous "Bread of Life" discourse of John 6 is perhaps the most explicit teaching of Jesus about the Eucharist. To understand the Eucharist, we must understand the radical claims Jesus makes about himself; namely, that he is God in the flesh.
