Ep. 95 | Why Mary Is the Sign of Hope

Do you ever feel like the hard season you're in will never end? In this episode, Fr Gavan turns to Our Lady as the great sign of hope the Church gives us, especially in May. Drawing on the Song of Songs and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux's famous homily, he shows why Mary is called the Morning Star, and why turning to her is the right move when life feels like a storm. Take this as an invitation to give Mary a little more of your time this month, and to let her point you toward the dawn.🔴 THIS SERIESMeditations | Ep. 95Meditations is a weekly podcast with Fr Gavan Jennings produced by Called to More.
