Saint Maximilian Kolbe: Hero of Auschwitz & Champion of the Immaculate

About this sermon

St. Maximilian Kolbe was a martyr of charity, apostle of hope, and one of the greatest Marian saints of modern times. His entire mission was centered on the Immaculate Virgin Mary and the conviction that souls—and ultimately the world—could be won for Christ through total consecration to her. In this powerful sermon, discover St. Maximilian Kolbe’s vision of the Militia Immaculatae, his understanding of Mary as the spouse of the Holy Spirit, his pioneering use of mass media for evangelization, and his radical call to belong completely and without limits to the Immaculate. We also hear the extraordinary story of hope from Auschwitz, where Kolbe’s words—“Hope. Only hope.”—helped transform the life of a prisoner facing despair. His heroic sacrifice for another prisoner was not simply one moment of courage. His entire life had been a preparation: a passionate desire to become holy, save souls, defeat evil, and bring the world to Jesus through Mary. May St. Maximilian Kolbe inspire us to give ourselves without reserve to the Immaculate and become saints in these difficult times. St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us. 00:00 Christ Before Men 00:30 St. Maximilian Kolbe: Champion of the Immaculate 01:20 The Immaculate Conception & Our Times 02:02 Fatima, 1917 & the Militia Immaculatae 02:57 Kolbe’s Mission to Conquer the World 03:13 Evangelizing Through Mass Media 03:29 Total Consecration to Mary 04:17 Hope Inside Auschwitz 04:52 Martyr of Charity & Defender of Life 05:30 The Incredible Story of Petrovsky 06:34 “Hope.
