Father Matthew Widder joins Patrick to discuss All things Mary (4:12) why is Mary so important in the Catholic Church? Why are there so many devotions to Mary? (15:04) Angela - When I was meditating on God and talking to Him and Mary, all of a sudden, I felt that if you get closer to Mary, you get closer to her son. Felt it was a message. What to do about spiritual attacks? John - I write meditations on the blessed mother.  Our father chose Mary, his ideal student.  She alone kept perfect attendance.  Even to the final class...the crucifixion. (22:37) Break 1 Mary - Mary was a devout Jew, but I wondered if young women grew up wondering if I could fulfill the prophecies? (29:09) Gracie - My sister thinks I'm committing the worst sin by praying to Mary. I don't know what to do to make her feel otherwise.  We were raised Catholic. What can I do to convince her? Joseph - My fascination with Mary has been through books and movies.  I hear about apparitions, and when we pray to her, are we heard the same way she heard her children at Fatima, etc? (38:55) Break 2 Diane - Confronted by someone.  If Mary is without sin, why does she need a savior? (46:54)  Rita - I have a lot of Baptist friends. I'm Catholic and they want to know why do we go to Mary and not directly to Jesus?
