📍 Episode 19: Santi Cosma e Damiano – Witnesses to Christ in the Heart of Rome

Today, our Lenten pilgrimage leads us to Santi Cosma e Damiano, a church built at the heart of the Roman Forum, where the triumph of Christ over paganism is boldly proclaimed. This basilica, dedicated to two physician-martyrs, reminds us that true healing comes not just through medicine, but through faith and sacrifice.

Join us as we explore:

🟠 The transformation of a pagan temple into a Christian church under Pope Felix IV
🟠 The inspiring lives of Saints Cosmas and Damian, healers who gave their lives for Christ
🟠 The 6th-century apse mosaic, where Christ stands in glory, calling us to eternal life
🟠 The deeper meaning of Christ as the Divine Physician and our call to seek spiritual healing

How does this ancient basilica challenge us to become witnesses to Christ in a secular world?
