The Hallowed Dead is an anthology of the lives of the saints. We can all draw wisdom, courage, and inspiration from the lives of people who surrendered everything to God. These men and women embraced sacrifice, endured suffering, and lived with a clarity that comes only from knowing Christ is King. Their stories challenge us. They invite us to look inward, to measure our own lives against eternity, and to remember that everything this world has to offer is nothing compared to the kingdom of heaven.

"The sun rose over Auschwitz on July 30, 1941, without mercy. The camp siren had split the morning air before dawn had fully broken, and thousands of prisoners stumbled from their barracks into the muddy courtyard. They stood in rigid formation, silent, hollow-eyed, starving. The night before, a prisoner had escaped, and under Nazi policy, that meant one thing. Ten men would die in his place. From within the ranks, from among thousands who knew that stepping out of line meant instant death, one man quietly removed his cap. He stepped forward, not in a panic or desperation, but with calm. His name was Father Maximilian Kolbe, a Polish Franciscan friar." Listen Online at divinemercyradio.org/listen Or Download our app from your app store - Search DivineMercyRadioNC

In this second episode, Kevin recounts the story of Fatima. The story about three simple children, Saints Francisco and Jacinta Marto and the venerable sister Lucia dos Santos, is extraordinary, to say the least.

In this premiere episode, Kevin presents the life of St. Padre Pio, the friar who bled with Christ. He heard the sins of soldiers fresh from the front lines. He spoke of invisible wars between angels and demons. He was investigated by the Vatican more times than any priest of his century. And he died with crowds outside his monastery, weeping, believing they had seen the face of holiness.
