"Me & Jesus" vs. "Us & Jesus"
Manage episode 169172060 series 1027297
Solemnity of Mary Mother of God
Most Christian denominations hold onto what I will call a "Me & Jesus" view of heaven - that in heaven we are totally caught up in God and we are no longer involved with others on earth. As Catholics, however, we believe that we are still united with all those men and women of faith who have gone before us and are in heaven with God - it's always "Us & Jesus". So we can ask them to pray for us to God (just as we ask friends on earth to pray for us). On this celebration of the motherhood of Mary, let us ask for the prayers of our Mother in a special way!
