The Seven Sufferings of the Sword in Mary's Heart

Join all three hosts for a conversation about Mary, the Mother of God. What does it mean that Mary is our mother? How does an ordered veneration of Mary lead us to a deeper worship of the Triune God? And personally, how are we trying to follow her in obedience, virginity, and passion for the salvation of the world? //

Our media recommendation is Caravaggio’s painting “Madonna di Loreto”, also known as “Pilgrims’ Madonna”. And our monthly challenge is to pray Fr. de Grandmaison’s Prayer to Mary throughout the month of May. You can find that here: www.pilgrimsoulpodcast.com/prayer-to-mary. //
