Description

In this supernatural thriller series, listeners will follow Lockie, a charismatic con man who escapes to St Kilda with the promise that this time he’ll change his ways. Unfortunately, the island and its unusual inhabitants have other ideas. He seeks redemption and they seek a saviour, but you know what they say - no change without sacrifice.

Episode 1: Trust

It begins, as terrible things often do, with a knife…
After a few months of assimilating to island life on St Kilda, Lockie MacGregor is deemed worthy of truly becoming a member of Dubrach’s family. However, with not everyone on the island convinced of his worth Lockie finds just making it to the ceremony an incredible challenge.
There’s no change without sacrifice, and life on this secluded isle is about to change irrevocably.

Father Ben left his congregation in Binghamton, New York, in the cover of night for the smaller, quieter pastures of St. Patrick’s. As our new, young, and at times progressive priest begins to acquiesce to his new surroundings, he finds himself butting heads with the eccentric parishioners who come to him seeking solace and advice. Whether he’s trying to understand Old Margaret’s “usual” confession; parsing out how Tom can better help care for his wife’s pet pig, David; or getting to the bottom of the Christmas Eve Mass Incident, Forgive Me! explores the intertwined lives in Ben’s new community and the funny, sad, and sometimes painful experiences that come out of confession and the Catholic experience.
