On this month’s Talking Saints, Laurie Power and Pete Sanchez reflect on the life and legacy of Saint Thomas More, a 16th century lawyer and Lord Chancellor to England’s King Henry VIII who put God above all things, at the cost of his own life. In addition to his relationship with the King, our hosts delve into More’s love for his wife and children, his skills as a theologian and writer, and how close More came to joining a Carthusian monastery at a young age.

Saint Thomas More, patron saint of lawyers, adopted children, and civil servants, pray for us!
