๐ŸŽฅ NOW LIVE ๐ŸŽฅ Today we turn to the nativity story and we look at Mary, the mother of Jesus. Early Christians explored hope, renewal, and new beginnings by expanding what we know about Mary from the New Testament. Our Christmas tradition is thus partly shaped by non-canonical texts like the Infancy Gospel of James, a pseudepigraphic apocryphal text from the 2nd century CE.
This Sunday, we consider the story of Maryโ€™s dedication at the Temple and how she was fed by the angels in preparation for her role as the Theotokos โ€” the โ€œGod-bearer.โ€ What is the deep meaning of this scene that inspired Christians throughout the centuries?
We invite you to share this moment with our global community ๐ŸŒ
