The Biblical Roots of Catholic Marian Devotion

“If we look at the New Testament in the light of the Old Testament and the light of ancient Christian writings… all of a sudden it becomes clear that what Catholics believe about Mary is not only deeply biblical but based on what we believe about Christ.”

Marian devotion leads to devotion to Jesus. The more we understand Mary in the Scripture, the more we are to understand Jesus. Join Dr. Brant Pitre in his discussion of the Old and New Testaments, the life of Christ, and the early Church fathers as to what they reveal about the life and identity of Mary.

Dr. Pitre is a professor of Scripture at the Augustine Institute who has written many academic books like Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary..
