Did Christ ever have nightmares? That's the question that inspired this. We see Christ afraid and in distress as an adult, but what about as a child scared of the dark, wetting the bed, getting a cut or scrape, waking up crying from nightmares? A God of vulnerability

Unmercenary is a title given to saints who did not accept money for good deeds or services. One of the most well-known saints with this title is Saint Panteleimon. He became a physician and devoted his vocation to serving the poor and healing Christian prisoners.
