About this episode

Does reading the book of Revelation intimidate you? As an apocryphal text, it can be difficult to read. However, this book of the Bible has much to teach us about our faith. In fact, it teaches us something about Mary. Dr. Sri explains some of what we can learn about Mary from the book of Revelation.

Snippet from the Show
It is a great gift that Christ gave us Mary to be our spiritual mother. She intercedes for us before the throne of her Son.
