What does it really mean to “Come, follow Me”... with your money?

In this special episode of The Catholic Money Show, Jonathan and Amanda Teixeira explore how two inspiring saints—and one saint-in-the-making—followed Jesus in their financial lives. From radical vows of poverty to using wealth to build schools, churches, and serve the poor, the saints show us that holiness and money are not mutually exclusive.

You’ll hear powerful stories and insights from:

🩺 St. Catherine Drexel – the banking heiress-turned-nun who gave away over $100 million in today’s dollars
✂️ Venerable Pierre Toussaint – a formerly enslaved man who became a wealthy NYC hairdresser and used his fortune to fund churches, free others from slavery, and support the poor
📜 St. Matthew – a tax collector turned Apostle, whose dramatic conversion reminds us that no financial past is beyond redemption

The episode is a special collaboration for Seek 25, where they explore the powerful theme of "Come Follow Me" by reflecting on the lives of these inspiring saints.
