In this powerful and moving episode, journey through the life of Saint Martin de Porres—one of the most humble, miraculous, and beloved saints in Catholic history. Born in poverty and rejected for the color of his skin, Martin rose not through power or prestige, but through prayer, penance, and profound love for the poor, the sick, and even animals.
Discover how this simple lay brother swept the monastery floors by day and touched heaven by night—performing astounding miracles, healing the sick, bilocating, communing with angels, and embracing the outcast with a tenderness that mirrored Christ Himself.
Based on the work of Giuliana Cavallini, this episode brings to life the mystical experiences, heroic virtues, and enduring legacy of the “Saint of the Broom,” who continues to inspire millions around the world. Whether you’re familiar with Saint Martin or meeting him for the first time, his story will leave your heart uplifted and your soul renewed.
Perfect for:
• Listeners seeking inspiration and hope
• Those interested in Catholic saints and spirituality
• Anyone needing a reminder that true greatness is found in humble love
“I am only a poor mulatto… but I love my Lord.” — Saint Martin de Porres
