Show Notes

I can’t wait for you guys to meet my guest this week! Fr. Augustine Wetta is a great friend and his joy and love for the Lord are just contagious. He is a Benedictine monk, lover of obscure saints, and author of Pray. Think. Act. Make Better Decisions with the Desert Fathers. He’s also living with early onset parkenson’s…which makes his contageous joy that much more inspiring.

Today, we talk about some of Fr. Augustine’s favorite saints (did you know there’s a Patron saint of “unattractive people”?), his love of the Desert Fathers, who nicknamed themselves the Athletae Dei, “the Athletes of God,” how to make and stick with big life decisions, and how to stay the course in your vocation when life gets tough.

We had so much fun in our conversation, and we hope you have just as much fun watching!
