280 St. Maximilian Kolbe & Marian Consecration with Dave VanVickle

AMDG. Catholic evangelist and podcaster Dave VanVickle is “obsessed” with St. Maximilian Kolbe and Marian consecration, and you should be too. In his background aiding exorcists, Dave discovered that “Mary is the lynch pin in almost every case.” Since then, Dave dove deeply into Marian consecration, inviting everyone to “give your life to Our Lady.” He discusses what Marian consecration really is (hint: it doesn’t have to be 33 days long), how to approach the prayer, and why we should not view it superstitiously.   Dave found devotion to St. Maximilian Kolbe through his research into Marian consecration. “This was a man who fell so deeply in love with our lady,” Dave comments, “He was doing theology that was high level… He desperately needs to be studied.”     Links mentioned & relevant:  Dave’s website The Catholic Truth about Angels, Demons, Ghosts, Exorcisms, and Hauntings  Every Knee Shall Bow podcast  The writings of St. Maximilian Kolbe and more information on Marian Consecration via the Militia Immaculata website  Related Kolbecast episodes:  100 In the Beginning with Kolbe Academy co-founder Mrs. Dianne Muth  174 Kolbe’s Chiaroscuro with Anthony D’Ambrosio about his film on St. Maximilian Kolbe Triumph of the Heart  134 For Tinkerers of All Ages highlighting St. Maximilian Kolbe’s engagements with media developments of his time  168 The Adventure of a Lifetime with Melissa Dee of the Saints Alive podcast  268 Pilgrimage & Jubilee with Our Lady of Champion featuring Kolbe Academy alumnus Fr.
