Went to seminary. Left seminary. Fell in love. But just before I got engaged… I got sick. An undiagnosed medical condition destroyed my life. I couldn’t sleep, my relationship ended, I could barely hold down my job, and there was no cure or end in sight. Amid that darkness, I lost my faith, and I wanted to die. But Kolbe’s story stuck with me. As I meditated on how Kolbe built a brotherhood in that dark place, a light broke through. I wrote this story to share Kolbe’s answer to my suffering and doubt with a world that desperately needs it. Kolbe is a saint for us and for our age.” Follow Triumph of the Heart on Instagram Follow Matthew Mayer on Instagram Matthew Mayer is a #1 Billboard Charting Artist and Host of the Podcast Going Solo.
