In this deeply moving episode, Abby sits down with Élisabeth Nguyen to hear the personal story of her brother, Cardinal Nguyá»…n Văn Thuáºn — a man whose life began as a fragile miracle and grew into a powerful witness of faith.
From surviving childhood in a time when many did not, to answering God’s call at just 13 years old, his journey would eventually lead him through war, hardship, and years of imprisonment that tested everything he believed.
Through a sister’s memories, Élisabeth shares the hidden moments behind the public figure, revealing a story shaped by loss, courage, and a faith that refused to fade — even in the darkest places.
