Holy Rebels Podcast
The Holy Rebels Podcast is for spiritually literate, psychologically aware seekers who want a mature, grounded relationship with God.
Hosted by Nina Hirlaender, Franciscan Sister and mystical theology teacher, this show pulls the Western mystical tradition off the shelf and into the daily grind, with more grace and less spinning.
Each episode blends vivid storytelling with practical formation, so your spiritual life feels alive, connected, and unmistakably real. You will meet mystics like Mary Magdalene, Francis of Assisi, and Teresa of Avila, not as saints on pedestals, but as wise companions for real life.
Expect practices that sharpen discernment, strengthen intuition you can trust, and bring steadier decisions, deeper prayer, and more peace that holds up under pressure.
No fluff, plenty of heart.

Rising Above Adversity: The Eighth Beatitude
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There's extraordinary power in sacrifice— the enduring light of hope that can emerge from the depths of darkness. In today's episode, we explore the heroic life of Maximilian Kolbe. A man who, in the face of indescribable evil, chose to embody the purest act of love—laying down his life for another.
We will journey through his inspiring story, reflecting on what it means to truly live for others and how, even in the darkest times, the human spirit can shine with an unquenchable light.
This episode invites us to ponder deeply on our own beliefs, the nature of sacrifice, and the enduring strength of love over despair. Join us as we grapple with these eternal questions, inspired by the legacy of a saint who showed us that, indeed, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.”
