Listen now (13 min) | I realized that some of the side gigs I do, although they pay me pennies at most are important to what I do and to my preaching. Let me give you an example: One mystery in my life was always if St. Maximillian Kolbe was such a saintly and holy man, why did God allow him to suffer and die in the Auschwitz? I discovered the answer when I interviewed the associate producer of the movie Two Crowns which was about the Polish saint. I had to see the movie in preparation and then I did the interview and I realized that I had the scenario backwards. God was not powerless to prevent Maximillian Kolbe from being sent to Auschwitz, Kolbe ended up there to be a presence of God in a place that to this day defines evil.
