How the Holy Spirit is Renewing the World with Michael Girgenti

In this episode of the Gotta Be Saints Podcast, I’m joined by actor Michael Girgenti, who portrays Jesus in the new docudrama That They May Be One, coming to theaters nationwide May 19–20 through Fathom Events.

Inspired by Jesus’ prayer in John 17, the film explores Christian unity, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the invitation for all people to come to know Christ more deeply. Michael shares about his own return to the Catholic faith, what it was like preparing to portray Jesus on screen, and how the experience transformed his prayer life and relationship with the Lord.

We also discuss:

• The meaning behind Jesus’ prayer “that they may all be one”
• Christian unity and evangelization
• Michael’s journey back to the Catholic Church
• The beauty of the sacraments and Eucharist
• Why Christian media is having a major cultural moment
• What it means for all of us to live as “mini-Christs” in daily life
• How the Holy Spirit continues to renew the Church today

This was a deeply encouraging conversation about holiness, discipleship, and the call to boldly share Christ with the world.
