When young Mary learns from the angel Gabriel that she would miraculously become the mother of the Christ child, she responds with a powerful song (see Luke 1:46-56) that has remarkable relevance for our lives today, and especially so during these difficult times.
Traditionally known as the Magnificat, Mary’s song is one of the most well-known songs in Christianity. Bible scholar N.T. Wright says, “It’s been whispered in monasteries, chanted in cathedrals, recited in small remote churches by evening candlelight, and set to music and kettledrums by Johann Sebastian Bach.”
Through Mary’s song, God invites you to replace worry with worship and to live in the sure hope of a renewed world. The message includes a number of practical applications that will help you to put the lessons you learn from Mary into practice.
