Editorial Staff Omnes

‘Rebeldes Podcast’ proposes to rediscover authentic Christian rebellion through testimonial dialogues with people whose lives have been transformed by their encounter with Jesus Christ. Its launch is this Thursday 15th on YouTube, Spotify, Ivoox, Instagram and Facebook. The first episode features the participation of Friar Marcos Dominican religious who went through MasterChef.

The one who said goodbye to Master Chef with the immunity pin, which allowed him to save himself from the test, but decided not to use it out of solidarity with his teammates? Yes, the same Fray Marcos.

“The rebelliousness of living the Gospel today.”

One of your drivers' star slogans -Ignacio Amorós (Se buscan Rebeldes) and Pablo López (Jóvenes Católicos), priests and digital evangelizers with extensive experience in faith communication and spiritual accompaniment, is “the rebelliousness of living the Gospel today”. As we will see below, they consider Jesus of Nazareth “the greatest rebel in history”.

Real testimonies, faith incarnate

Guests who have already participated in ‘Rebel Podcast’ include:

● Fray Marcos, Dominican friar and participant in MasterChef.

● Casilda Finat, entrepreneur, wife and mother, influencer and convert to Catholicism.

● Casto Domínguez, musician and businessman, testimony of faith after overcoming cancer.

● Carlota Valenzuela and Santiago, pilgrims from Finisterre to Jerusalem.

● Irene and Israel, married couple with 12 children, missionaries in China.

● Mother Olga, foundress of the Samaritan Carmelites of the Heart of Jesus.

● Bishop Raimo Goyarrola, Bishop of Helsinki.

The project proposes to rediscover authentic Christian rebellion: to live against the tide by following Jesus Christ, the only Way, Truth and Life. You can watch the trailer here.

Through testimonial dialogues, ‘Rebeldes Podcast’ gives voice to people whose lives have been transformed by an encounter with God: converts, married couples, large families, religious, Catholic influencers, priests and lay people. 

The proposal is that faith should not be a distant discourse, but an experience that can be taken to the gym, walked down the street, listened to in the car or on the bus, entertaining and formative at the same time.

Ignacio Amorós answer four or five brief questions:

What does it mean to be a Christian rebel today?

- “In deciding on this revolution, we may find it difficult to carry it out. A friend once told me that he loved Jesus Christ and shared his message of love, but that he was ‘too much of a rebel. Then I reminded him of some words of St. Josemaría: ’Look, in today's world, a rebel is someone who doesn't want to go with the flow, who doesn't want to live like a selfish person, who can't bear to step on others, who decides not to live like a little animal... A rebel is someone who wants to do good, to give his life for God and for others. Yes, these are the rebels who follow the greatest rebel in history, Jesus of Nazareth‘’.

What does ‘Rebel Podcast’ bring to evangelization today?

- We want there to be a Catholic podcast where you can share your faith in everyday life. You can listen to it while playing sports, walking, driving or just being at home. That you like it, that it's entertaining and that it brings you Catholic formation. In addition, we invite very interesting and thought-provoking people to share their ideas and testimonies“.

Guests break stereotypes of the “typical Catholic.” Is this intentional?

- Yes, we want to show that holiness and rebelliousness do not have a mold. There are tattooed Catholics, exhausted mothers, businessmen, young pilgrims, religious, bishops... The Church is much more human and fascinating than is often thought.“.

Who is this podcast for?

- To anyone who has deep concerns: believers, those who are far away, people in search. Especially to those who feel that the world promises much and fills little. We want to be an honest companion on that path.“.

If you had to sum up the message of the podcast in one sentence, what would it be?

- “That it is worth risking one's life for Christ, because He alone makes truly free.”.
