A proposito di questo titolo
In this Advent reflection, we journey with St. Mary to discover the deep mysteries hidden in her visit to Elizabeth. Why does the Church place Mary before us so often before Christmas? Because, as the Fathers teach: Follow the Mother, and you will find the Son.
Drawing rich parallels between Luke’s Gospel and the story of the Ark of the Covenant, this sermon shows how St. Mary is revealed as the true Ark—carrying within her the living Word, the Bread of Life, and the presence of God Himself. We explore how her greeting causes John the Baptist to leap, how Elizabeth echoes David’s awe, and how Revelation reveals Mary’s place at the Second Coming.
This message also lifts up the powerful witness of the saints—from the defense of Constantinople to the teachings of St. Joseph the Hesychast—on the intercession, purity, and motherly protection of the Theotokos.
As we begin the season of Advent (and the Nativity Fast), this sermon invites us to draw near to the Mother of God, to learn from her purity, to seek her prayers, and to allow her to lead us more deeply to Christ.
