Why Do Catholics Call Mary Our Mother?
Why do Catholics call Mary our Mother? Is it biblical? What did Jesus mean when He said from the Cross, “Behold your mother” (John 19:27)?
In this clip from one of High Calling Program's classes, "The Way of Mary," renowned Catholic theologian and Mariologist Dr. Mark Miravalle explains the Catholic teaching on Mary as our spiritual mother through Scripture, the Church Fathers, and the mystery of Christ and His Church.
Whether you’re Catholic, Protestant, exploring Christianity, or simply wondering why Catholics have devotion to Mary, this talk offers a biblical and Christ-centered explanation of one of the most misunderstood teachings in the Catholic faith.
A special thank you to Dr. Mark Miravalle for his decades of faithful scholarship, teaching, and service to the Church. Dr. Miravalle is one of the world’s leading scholars on Mariology and Catholic theology.
