Maximilian Kolbe is best known for the manner of his death—he volunteered to die in the place of a stranger, who was a man with children, at Auschwitz during World War II.

He gave her the surprising answer: “I choose both.” Remarkable conversion, however unlikely, is possible—in others and yourself. Believe it!
