⚓✨ Saints of 365 Days : June 22: St. John Fisher: The Heroic Cardinal Who Defied a King to Defend the Church ✨⚓ Listen to the Saints of the Day Audio Podcast as we explore the life of St. John Fisher on our daily Saints of 365 Days journey. 🙏 Did you know that when King Henry VIII forced the entire clergy of England to declare him the supreme head of the Church, only one single Bishop had the courage to say no—standing completely alone against an angry tyrant? Saint John Fisher was a brilliant 16th-century intellectual, Chancellor of Cambridge, Bishop of Rochester, and a close friend of Saint Thomas More. When the King demanded the approval of his unlawful divorce and the rejection of papal authority, Fisher refused to compromise his conscience. Even while locked away in the dark cells of the Tower of London, the Pope named him a Cardinal, driving the furious King to execute him before the red hat could even arrive. 🌟 In this video you will discover: • His incredible legacy as a world-class scholar who revitalized the University of Cambridge. 📚🎓 • His deep pastoral care as the Bishop of Rochester, choosing to stay in a poor diocese rather than chasing wealth. ⛪❤️ • His fearless defense of Queen Catherine of Aragon and the sacred bond of holy matrimony. 👑🛡️ • The harrowing months inside the Tower of London and the symbolic red hat sent by the Pope. ⛓️🎒 • His triumphant walk to the executioner’s block, carrying the New Testament and forgiving his killers. 🪓✨ 🔥 A breathtaking story of scholarly brilliance, pastoral integrity, and unyielding courage that shows us what it truly means to stand for Christ when everyone else bows to the world. 🎥 Click now and discover the life of St. John Fisher, the faithful shepherd who laid down his life to protect the unity of the Church.
