When we hear the word martyrdom, we often imagine distant lands and people caught in the grip of extremists. But martyrdom isn’t only a story that happens “somewhere else.” In this episode, we uncover the unexpected faces of martyrdom in our own communities, exploring how sacrifice, suffering, and the pursuit of meaning even unto death manifest much closer to home.

Prepare to challenge assumptions, widen perspectives, and see how the concept of martyrdom is woven into the fabric of our everyday lives.
