Rebel Saints: Because you were made for Christ.
In a world addicted to the scroll, the self, and constant noise, choosing to be Catholic isn’t a retreat—it’s resistance. It’s a bold, messy commitment to Love.
Rebel Saints is for the faithful misfits who believe the Church is a field hospital, not a museum. Hosted by journalist and photojournalist Nicole Olea, this podcast looks honestly at what it actually costs to follow Christ in 2026.
We don’t do polished, Instagram-filtered faith here.
We talk about:
Are you a restless heart
If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “There has to be more to this than just checking the Sunday box,” you’re in the right place.
If you love the Church but sometimes wrestle with her... if you believe holiness belongs in real life, not just stained glass... pull up a chair.
We believe what St. Augustine knew: our hearts are restless until they rest in Christ. That restlessness isn’t a weakness—it’s a calling.
In a divided and noisy world, believing every soul is worth fighting for—including your own—is the ultimate rebellion.
