How A Nun Built The Largest Religious Media Empire | The Lila Rose Podcast E135

Described as innovative, holy, and hilarious, Mother Angelica started what would become the largest religious media empire on earth at 58 years old - Eternal Word Television Network

ETWN launched just two weeks after MTV, with the gift of a $600,000 satellite gift and a nun's innovative mind. Her mind helped her be resourceful, bold, and strategic, while her soul, deeply connected to God and under divine inspiration, guided her decisions and gave her the courage to take risks. I discuss the "theology of risk," the importance of trusting in God's providence, Mother Angelica's life and death, and much more with her successor and right-hand man for decades Michael Warsaw, CEO of EWTN
