In this lighter, but not less-substantial episode of our podcast is a contemplative journey through the first two Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary—the Annunciation and the Visitation, through the prism of the Gospel of Luke. We unlock the mysteries of the humility and power of the Blessed Virgin Mary, demonstrated in her Fiat, the Magnificat, and her visit to Elizabeth, demonstrating how she rushes to do the good.I begin by addressing the question "Where in the Bible does anybody pray to Mary" using it as the basis for explaining the Hail Mary, its roots in both scripture and tradition, as I explain the difference between Sacred Tradition, and "customary traditions"Going into an explanation of Joseph's lineage, and why it has significance to the angel's annunciation to Mary, I proceed to bring the listener into a deeper appreciation of Mary's fiat ("So be it!"). Then, focusing on Mary's visit to Elizabeth, we reflect on the selflessness of the Blessed Virgin and her symbolic role as the new Ark of the Covenant. The episode culminates with a discussion on the strength and power of Mary, as evidenced in the Magnificat and her pivotal role throughout Jesus' life.Chapters3:45 - About the Gospel of Luke7:09 - 'Where is Marian Prayer in the BIble??'11:38 - Why the Hail Mary has Power - 11:3815:50 - Joseph, House of David, Our Lord's Father17:55 - Mary's Fiat22:57 - The Virginity of Mary, and Mary's Faith in God27:54 - Nothing WILL BE Impossible32:19 - Mary's Perfect Faith.
