About this episode
The episode explores J.K. Rowling's life, her challenges, and her faith through the insights of guest Solomon Schmidt.
J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, has led a life of ups and downs and on way to becoming one of the world's best-selling authors, has overcome much adversity. She's also a complex woman — as complex as the characters she's developed in her much-beloved books. Even her faith and love for Jesus has not come without controversy. Solomon Schmidt, author of "A Pen to Change the World," dove deep into her background.
