Thirty (thirty!) years ago, I experienced probably one of the greatest privileges of my life. I spoke at World Youth Day in Denver with St. John Paul II. Well, I didn’t speak with him. We spoke at the same event. He was the headliner. I was one of the many “filler acts” that were basically killing time until the Big Man arrived. I doubt that anybody was particularly interested in what I had to say. But still, it was the largest audience I ever spoke to.
