After a long (and deeply spiritual) hiatus, Methodist to the Madness returns with an episode on one of church history’s most intense figures: Catherine of Siena.

She wrote scathing letters to popes, fasted herself into visions, and once drank pus out of a bowl—voluntarily.

In this episode, we explore Catherine’s mystical life, her radical acts of service, and the thin line between holy devotion and spiritual burnout.

It’s a story of sacred intensity, unsettling choices, and what it really means to serve.
