Series on "Mary and the Interior Life" by Fr. Jeremiah Shryock (Part 1)
How important is Mary, Our Lady, in your spiritual life?
Our Lady is a real woman, a real mother to all of us and Mary's intercession is actually more real than we realize.
The gift of Our Lady is that she looks upon us, she knows our hearts, and her gaze can be the first safe and secure place in a world of filled insecurity. At this same moment, Mary wants us to look upon her and it is in this exchange where we find safety and security in our lives through a contemplative experience with her.
In this episode, as we start our mini-series on Fr. Jeremiah's book, we are going to talk about Mary—a real mom, an invitation to gain a different understanding of Mary and learn about the importance of viewing the world through her eyes.
