## Resource

Saint Brigid of Kildare is steeped in myth to people of Christian and Pagan faith, and she's one of the three patron saints of Ireland. Known for being an abbess who led orders of men and women; a nun who celebrated the Mass; a woman who shared a bed with her "anam cara" or "soulmate," fellow nun Darlughdach; for making a pregnancy miraculously disappear; and, bamboozingly, for being the patron saint of computers ... there's a lot to unpack about this fiery lady. Join friend of Rev. Lizzie and the pod, The Rev. Angela Tyler-Williams, for a spirited conversation about saints, who tells the sacred stories of our faith, and why this Irish goddess-slash-saint still has good news for us in the liminal spaces today.
