Many people are familiar with St Sebastian because of his patronage of Soldiers and Athletes and the images of his martyrdom are quite ubiquitous throughout the church. What a lot of people do not know is that St Sebastian was the captain of the Imperial Guard under one of the most savage persecutors of the Church, the emperor Diocletian. He won many converts strengthened those facing martyrdom and aided Christians with his ability to work miracles. He also had the rare privilege of being martyred twice for Christ sake (he was raised from the Dead after his first martyrdom).
One of the great things about Sebastian was his combination of great love for God and great love for his country, despite his country persecuting him and all Christians.
If you are interested in hearing his fascinating life and martyrdom taken from the Acts of the early martyrs it is now available to download or listen to on streaming here:
