catholicnanaSaint Valentine reviewThank you Merry Beggars. I fell in love with my catholic faith as a little girl in first grade in Catholic school in New Jersey because the nuns would tell us the lives of the Saints and I would be so impressed as a child about the martyrs among other things in the Catholic faith. God bless all those sisters who taught me insane in school first grade through eighth. Thank you for bringing the Saints to life. I so enjoy the podcast of all the scenes. I listen so far to Saint Damien of Molokai and now I’m listening to Saint Valentine. Thank you so much. God bless you all merry beggars.

The blind singerSuch an amazing podcastI am not Catholic, but I have always been fascinated by the lives of the Saints and I have always loved Christian audio drama. This series is almost a direct continuation of the classic stories of great Christians that the Moody Bible Institute broadcasted on the radio from 1948 to about 2000 Ware every day Monday through Friday they would do about 15 minutes Each day of a biography of a great Christian. This is, the exact type of thing that I have been looking for to continue that. God bless you guys and thank you.

JazzcatjtA beautiful and wonderful showI love The Merry Beggars your podcasts about the Saints are fantastic. I love St. Therese of Lisieux and I love your podcast about her. I’ve listened to so many and I’m really learning more about the Saints. I’m a 62 year old Catholic lady with Metastatic Breast Cancer and your podcast is so calming. Thank you for this podcast.

Raa2006Fun & interestingI am new to the Catholic Church and to the saints as well. These are delightful episodes to listen to and the world goes silent as I take in the stories. It's a relaxing time and I feel myself grow closer to Jesus with each new saint I learn about. Thank you and may God bless you for helping to creating such a pleasant experience.

Southern RomanEngaging and family-friendlyOur family enjoys listening to each 10-minute episode. Excellent dramatization and even for the popular saints you hear stories that usually are not told in great depth elsewhere so you learn something new.

Mayangel87Great showLove these shows. Great for all ages, but does John Paul II have a part 4 and 5? Part 3 really left me hanging and all the other saints seem to be 5 parts.
-

👁️❤️🥋GreatA little bit confused… My family has really loved the Saints, It seems that they just brought back Patrick of Ireland, used the exact same episodes, and called it ENCORE? Odd. Otherwise, a wonderful podcast.
-
RoseGraffioGripping and inspiring!My six kids and I can’t get enough of The Saints podcast! You do an amazing job of condensing a saint’s story into five short, action-packed episodes. St. Damien of Molokai is our favorite one yet! Thank you, and keep up the good work!
-
Morning Star Family FarmFamily Friendly Radio Drama!Wonderful and wholesome and holy stories for all ages! We love it!! We play it as kids get ready for school, on road trips, during free time at home. Reminiscent of the beautiful saint stories called Glory Stories on CD from back in the day.
-
ToydogwifeSoul FoodA timely lift for the soul! Well done. The drama component enhances each episode making the stories more memorable.
-
cathasleMy kids and I love these!I have 6 children. Ages 7,5,4,3,1,0. The oldest 4 constantly ask for more of The Saints. These stories are very well renditioned! Even if I know a Saint well I always learn something and it makes my kids excited for our faith! Saint Elizabeth Seton had me crying so hard while driving. I can’t stop recommending these to my friends. So well done!! Thank you! Bravo!!
-
mrswj1012Wonderful!We’ve loved all the stories so far! I know St. Elizabeth Ann Seton’s story well, and your rendition still had me in tears around the lunch table with my children! Well done! We can’t wait for more!
-

Rose61393Great so far!Although I am not Catholic and do not know all the Saints, I have been enjoying listening to these episodes and learning about their lives and their relationships with God.
-
ktp60Love these!Was so excited to find these stories. They are very engaging and are the perfect length so we can listen to an entire episode on a short car ride. We also loved the “On the Night Train” audio drama.
-
Catholic Mom FirstThe SaintsWonderful and awe-inspiring shows! Have truly enjoyed listening to all the shows and now my husband and I listen together. I look forward to the next episode each day!
-
helen15Love this so much!I love this because I can put it on in the car with my little kids and they’ll get wholesome faith filled content but it’s also engaging and enjoyable for me the parent. Every week I’m excited to learn more about the new saint instead of just the short blurb I usually hear about them on their feast day.
-

Elamk24Entertaining and inspiring!Exceptional quality audio theater! Even for saints I thought I already knew well, these episodes drew me closer to their humanity, struggles, and deep relationship with God. I look forward to listening to these episodes with my teen kids.
-
psgolaIncredible Dramatization of the Lives of the SaintsThis series has down an incredible job of humanizing the saints as it’s more than just a biography, but a glimpse into their lives.
-
