It's Never Too Late to Become a Saint

What do you think of when you hear the word saint? Catholicism? Mother Teresa? Someone who's "holier-than-thou"? Someone you could never become? In this episode of Not Just Sunday, Keith and Patrick challenge the myths around sainthood and unpack what it really means to be a saint in the Christian life. They discuss why sainthood isn't reserved for the spiritually elite, breaking down the two parts of being a saint: who you are and how you live. They explore why all Christians are already saints, but are also actively becoming saints through God’s faithfulness, not just through human effort. If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in your spiritual life, or like sainthood is for “those kinds” of Christians, we hope this episode encourages you to rethink what’s possible. 🔔 Subscribe now to join us on the journey toward full-time faith. 📫 Want Sunday's best for your Monday morning inbox?
