## Resource

Today on the SSPX Podcast, we begin a new series: The Episcopal Consecrations . Before we can understand the events themselves, we have to understand the man at the center of it all—Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre. Who was he? What formed him? And what drove him to take such decisive action in the face of the crisis in the Church? Joined by Fr.
