The extraordinary journey of Saint Ignatius of Antioch stands as one of the most powerful examples of faith, theology, and courage in the early Church.
Sentenced to death in the early second century, the elderly bishop was marched under armed guard to Rome to face execution in the Colosseum sands. Rather than pleading for his life, Ignatius utilized his long journey to author seven historic letters that would permanently anchor Christian doctrine, defending the real presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist as the “Medicine of Immortality.” This documentary tracking package explores his apostolic background as a disciple taught by the apostles, his fearless embrace of martyrdom, and his timeless declaration of being ground as “God’s wheat” to become the pure bread of Christ.
