Martyr Julian of Tarsus:  almost every day martyrs are part of the Liturgical calendar.  We can read, often in detail, of horribly painful tortures that are worse than the ‘worst’ of a Hollywood horror picture.  We often don’t take time to think that these men and woman were just like us…they had everyday problems and ‘life’ to deal with.   Would you give all of your earthly existence up as they did to witness to Christ?
