'Eleven Is the Virgin Mary?' Stranger Things and Spiritual Warfare

from Youth for Truth · host Qurbana Media

On another edition of 'Youth for Truth' coming to you from #SEEK26, we discuss the wildly popular show 'Stranger Things' (spoiler-free) and its themes of fighting against demonic attacks and possible connections to Christian figures. We, along with a couple young ladies from the Chaldean community in Michigan, reflect on how the show's depiction of unseen realities parallels our spiritual battles and the role of faith. Fr. Simon also makes his bold case for how Eleven can be a symbol of Mother Mary. So if you're a fan of the show or not, tune in to for a lively conversation about the powerful intercession of Mary, how we should consume popular media, and what exactly is improv comedy? 00:00 Intro 01:52 Discussing Stranger Things 05:10 Spiritual Themes in Stranger Things 09:00 Spiritual Battles 15:32 Devotion to Mother Mary 16:20 Understanding Catholic and Protestant Views on Mary 17:37 Mary's Role in Spiritual Warfare 22:33 Improv Comedy 25:10 Candy Review ▶️ Video version on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@QurbanaMedia  📲 Follow us on social media: "Youth for Truth" IG: https://www.instagram.com/youthfortruthshow/ "Qurbana Media" IG: https://www.instagram.com/qurbanamedia/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@qurbana.media 🗞️ Sign-Up for our newsletter: https://www.qurbanamedia.org/newsletter
