Imagine risking everything for a single moment with the Eucharist. In this episode of The Manly Catholic, we’re diving into the heart of that kind of courage with Jason Gale, VP of Content and Production at TAN Books, as he uncovers the stories of those who died to protect the Blessed Sacrament. Jason’s journey—from auto mechanic to theologian—is a testament to God’s mysterious call, one that led him to explore the lives of modern martyrs and their powerful, undying devotion to the Eucharist.
The stories in "Martyrs of the Eucharist" aren’t ancient tales; they’re testimonies from our recent past, including courageous souls like the young Li, a girl who risked her life for the Eucharist during anti-Christian purges. Jason shares this and more, exploring what it means to sacrifice and to be consumed by love for Christ. He walks us through the fearless craftsmanship of Nicholas Owen, a saint who designed hiding places for priests, and St. Margaret Clitherow, who died rather than deny her faith.
These aren’t just stories—they’re challenges. Challenges to each of us to deepen our own devotion to the Eucharist, to consider how we’re called to use our talents for God, and to embrace the path of suffering that comes with authentic discipleship. So join us for an episode that will make you pause, reflect, and consider: What would you give for the Eucharist?
