Saint John Paul II lived one of the most intense lives of the twentieth century: he lost his family, endured Nazi occupation, faced communism, became a priest, bishop, pope, and tireless pilgrim. In this episode of Footprints of Holiness, we follow Karol Wojtyła’s journey from Wadowice to Rome, his love for young people, his defense of human dignity, the assassination attempt that nearly took his life, and his long pontificate. This is a story about suffering, vocation, freedom, public faith, and a holiness that learned to embrace the world without taking its eyes off God.
