So I want you to follow me closely here. A hypothetical Protestant republic, centuries from now, would be . . . chock full of Protestants. That would be the ethos of the whole place. Gaming it all out is how you test the principles of the various systems. What would still be there, and what would be long gone? Pride parades would be long gone. Catholic church bells would not be. Why and how come? Let’s talk about it. For more from Doug, subscribe to Canon+: https://canonplus.com/

1 Samuel 2:1-10Hannah prayed and said, “My heart exults in the Lord; my strength is exalted in my God. My mouth derides my enemies, because I rejoice in my victory.“There is no Holy One like the Lord, no one besides you; there is no Rock like our God. Talk no more so very proudly, let not arrogance come from your mouth; for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. The bows of the mighty are broken, but the feeble gird on strength. Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, but those who were hungry are fat with spoil. The barren has borne seven, but she who has many children is forlorn. The Lord kills and brings to life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up. The Lord makes poor and makes rich; he brings low, he also exalts. He raises up the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from the ash heap, to make them sit with princes and inherit a seat of honor. For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, and on them he has set the world.“He will guard the feet of his faithful ones, but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness; for not by might does one prevail. The Lord! His adversaries shall be shattered; the Most High will thunder in heaven. The Lord will judge the ends of the earth; he will give strength to his king, and exalt the power of his anointed.” It wasn't intentional that we saved Hannah's prayer for the week of International Women's Day, which was this past Sunday, but sometimes happy, holy accidents just happen. So it's good and right that we hear a prayer for justice from one of our ancestors – a woman – who prays a beautiful, bold, faithful, full-throated appeal like what we just heard; and another, which we'll hear shortly.Hannah, we know, was the mother of the prophet Samuel. And it's knowing that Hannah was one of two wives to a guy named Elkanah. Elkanah's other wife was a baby-making machine – she had sons and daughters aplenty, though we don't know how many. And Elkanah's other wife, described as Hannah's “rival,” was terrible about it. According to the story, she “provoked” and “irritated” Hannah, which I imagine means she mocked her and made fun of her and shamed her for not being able to have children as easily or as prolifically as she could.And, as Pastor Cogan reminded us on Sunday, in teaching about that un-named woman at the well who'd had five husbands by the time she met up with Jesus, having children – back in the day – was confirmation of your worth as a woman; it assured your status and place in a family; it was a very practical source of security (you'd have people to protect and provide for you, should you ever be widowed or alone); it was how you mattered as a woman in a misogynistic, patriarchal, man's world. So Hannah may have wanted a child because her mothering instincts were in full effect. She may also have wanted a baby because she wanted to make her husband happy. (The Bible tells us that Elkanah loved Hannah, in spite of the fact that she hadn't given him a child, yet.) But Hannah may have wanted a child – and a boy, in particular – simply because she longed for affirmation of her worth, of her value, of her esteem, in her own eyes, in the eyes of God, in the eyes of the world … and maybe so she could tell that “sister wife” of hers … Elkanah's other wife … to take a hike – or something similar.That's why Hannah prayed to and bargained so intensely with God. She promised she would commit her baby boy to a life of sacrifice and service to the Lord. And then it happened. God delivered. And Hannah delivered. And she kept her promise, too. She loved, cared for, fed and nurtured her little boy Samuel until she handed him over to the Lord; to live in the house of the high priest, Eli, and to become one of the greatest prophets in all of Israel's history.And Hannah's prayer for justice that we heard was prayed in celebration and with thanksgiving for God's answered prayer … for the gift of her baby boy. And Hannah's song sounds like the original to the Virgin Mary's cover version, so many generations later, in the Gospel of Luke – the Magnificat – which gets a whole lot more air-time because … Jesus.See, in Hannah's song, her heart “exults in the Lord,” she “smiles at her enemies” because she “rejoices in God's salvation.” Likewise, Mary's soul “magnifies the Lord” and her spirit “rejoices in God her savior.”Hannah says, “the bows of the mighty are broken,” and “the feeble gird on strength.” Mary says “the mighty are cast down from their thrones” and “the humble in heart are lifted up.”For Hannah, “Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, but those who were hungry are fat with spoil.” Mary says the same, just more simply, “God has filled the hungry with good things.”You get the picture.The undeniable similarities between Hannah's prayer, like Mary's, show a profound theological understanding about our God. A God who treasures and cares for the least among us. A God who protects the vulnerable and who challenges the powers that be. A God who listens to and uses the least likely suspects to bring justice, to provoke peace, to proclaim grace, to practice mercy, to do hard, holy, brave, beautiful things for the sake of the Kingdom.Of course, justice of all sorts is worth praying about and working for in the world today. And since, as Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,” because it's International Women's Month, and in honor of our ancestor Hannah, I found some things we could pray about, very specifically, where justice for women is concerned, and that impacts us all – or should:• Did you know that every year more than 2 million girls are subjected to female, genital mutilation?• Also, every year, 12 million girls in the world are married before their 18th birthday.• 3.9 billion women live in countries with at least one law restricting their economic opportunities or access to the same justice as men.• 90% of the world's current billionaires were born before women could even get a line of credit.• In the US, women get paid something like only 81-85% of what men do.• Still, 6 in 10 Gen Z men believe/agree that we – men – are being expected to do too much to support gender equality. (For what it's worth 4 in 10 Gen Z women believe the same.)So, not only is there plenty to pray about because there's plenty to be mad about, too. Which brings me to my last point for tonight. And that is the righteous anger I hear in the spirit of Hannah's prayer, as much as all the rest. It's what I hear when she prays that the lord “cuts off the wicked,” “shatters the adversaries,” and “thunders in heaven,” too.So, I've asked Mallory to read again … something I'm taking liberties to call a modern-day protest prayer – not for babies, or for value that's found in men's approval, or for worth by way of society's unfair standards – but a prayer for freedom and justice, generally, for women. It's a poem by the play write and feminist Eve Ensler. (You might remember her as the creator of “The Vagina Monologues” from back in the day.) This is a slightly abridged piece, minimally edited for content that's safe for worship.I Am Leaving My Father's House by Eve EnslerI am leaving my father's house.Stepping out, stepping off, free falling outside the confines of what is acceptable and known.I am leaving this cage which suppressed me, depressed me, made less of me so thoroughly I came to call it my legacy, my country, my home.I am leaving those angry men whose broken hearts and wounds became more painful and urgent than my own.I'm not going to be sorry anymore or responsible or wrong.I'm going to stop believing I can wake you up or break open your shell or get you to feel your grief, your tenderness.I'm going to stop mainlining my life force into your self-esteem.Air pump girl blowing up boy rubber ball. You can stay flat and go nowhere by yourself.I am leaving my father's house.I'm not going to whisper anymore or tiptoe or lay flat on my back.I'm not ducking, flinching, waiting till you finish or whimpering in the dark.I am moving out. I'm not going back.I am leaving my father's house.Because I no longer believe your lies about freedom and democracy – that it hurts you more than your whips or words or policies hurt me.I'm going to believe what I see: bruises on my neck, Iraqi women with their voting fingers chopped off, emaciated polar bears in the Arctic melting from corporate greed.I'm fleeing your disguised terror of my bigness, my hunger, my vagina, my tongue.I am leaving my father's house.I don't want a position there.I'm not going to leash your prisoners.I'm not going to starve your workers, organize your lynch mobs, or camouflage your crimes.I'm not going to be a trophy on your arm or smile till my face breaks off.I am leaving my father's house.Corporate towers, cathedrals, mosques, and synagogues, picket fence houses and pentagons.I'm going out.Past the neighborhoods, past nations, fundamental doctrines and misinterpreted laws, past the reach of your fist, past the fire breath of your rage, past the tentacles of your seductive melancholy or your unspoken promises to change. I am willing to be alone, disliked, slandered, and misconstrued, because my freedom is more important than your so-called love.Because my leaping will be the ultimate jumping off, will be the new beginning where we all get to start without a daddy in charge, on top, in control of all the goods, ideas, interpretations, and cash.I'm going out there by myself.But I know I will find the rest of you there waiting, ready, knee deep in the garden, hands raised in the water, way, way out past my father's house.So, many thanks to Hannah tonight for her patient faithfulness, for her selfless sacrifice, for her powerful proclamation; …for professing her faith, for promising justice, for proclaiming hope;…for pronouncing God's good news, mercy, abundance;…and for her righteous anger, too, that should stoke and give permission for our own.May we all pray in similar ways … for us and for others … until “the moral arc of the universe,” as the saying goes, “bends towards justice” … until righteousness and peace kiss one another … and until all of God's people – men, women, and everyone in between – a re found ready, waiting, and knee deep in the garden, hands raised in the water, and moved beyond the house of the world's patriarchy.Amen (The “Not Safe for Worship” version of Eve Ensler's poem can be watched below.)

Fr. Mike helps us to understand Mary's role in the history of salvation. Through her belief and obedience, Mary becomes the Mother of God, and she cooperates in the redemption of the entire world. God's glory is manifested when he uses weak and powerless people to show forth his faithfulness. What we believe about Mary is based on what we believe about Christ, and what the Church teaches about Mary illuminates our faith in Christ. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 484-489. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Mental health therapist Ann Russo brings a unique lens to sexual empowerment—one shaped by growing up in a non-traditional family, exploring Christianity as a queer person, and dedicating her work to helping people reclaim their sexuality from religious trauma and cultural conditioning. In this powerful conversation, Ann and Jenny explore how women's sexuality has been systematically erased and shamed through religious narratives—from the Virgin Mary to Mary Magdalene—and how that conditioning shows up in our bodies, our relationships, and our mental health today, even if we weren't raised religious. Ann shares how keeping her family dynamics secret as a child created a pattern of protecting others at the expense of her own truth—a pattern many women carry around their sexuality and desires. They dive into the Madonna-whore complex, why women still feel obligated to have sex with their partners, the phenomenon of "lesbian bed death," and Jenny's theory about why female-centered sexuality might actually satisfy male partners more deeply. Topics include: Religious trauma & sexuality The Madonna-whore complex & Mary Magdalene Growing up in a non-traditional family structure Keeping secrets & the cost of hiding our truth Mental health impacts of sexual repression Why women feel obligated to have sex Lesbian bed death & female sexuality in queer relationships Putting women's pleasure first Reclaiming the word "pussy" as power The importance of leaning into discomfort as a portal to empowerment Female-centered sexuality & why it satisfies everyone more Dive deep into Pussy Centered Living by joining us in:The Pussy Centered Living Community If you're ready to have Jenny personally support you in reigniting your desire, reconnecting to your pleasure, and creating relationships that get more passionate over time, book your Desire Breakthrough Session now.

March is Women's History Month, and March 8th is International Women's Day. While both are recent in terms of when they began, this episode will explore one of the Middle Ages great Lady Authors Christine de Pizan. I read her book The City of Ladies as an undergrad, but what stuck with me was how she used The Virgin Mary as a model for the inherent worth of women.To make a one time donation of any amount to support the podcast, please donate tohttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/BlackMadonnaHeartBecome a Patron for the channel at https://www.patreon.com/TheBlackMadonnaSpeaksTo purchase Black Madonna Speaks extra content, please visithttps://www.patreon.com/theblackmadonnaspeaks/shop#divinefeminine #sacredfeminine #virginmary #ourlady #blackmadonna #anthroposophy#spiritualjourney #spirituality #WomensHistoryMonth.

Today we are on the sixth line: “He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of The Virgin Mary” and studying question 58. 58. What does the union of Jesus' two natures teach you about his ministry? All Jesus does as a human being he also does as God. His human words and deeds are saving because they are the words and deeds of God the Son. (John 5:19–29; Romans 8:1–4; Colossians 1:19–23; Hebrews 4:14–16) We will conclude today with The Collect for Palm Sunday found on page 607 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Today is day 57 and we are in the section on the Second Article of the Apostles' Creed on Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today we are on the sixth line: “He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of The Virgin Mary” and studying question 57. 57. What is the relationship between Jesus' divine and human natures? At the moment of Jesus' conception, the divine nature of the one eternal Person of the Son was united to our human nature. Therefore, Jesus Christ is fully and truly both divine and human, but without sin. His two natures are united without division, separation, mixture, or change. (Luke 1:26–38; John 1:14; Philippians 2:6–8; Hebrews 2:10–16; 1 John 4:2–3; Definition of Chalcedon) We will conclude today with The Collect for The Presentation of Christ in the Temple found on page 603 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Today we are on the sixth line: “He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of The Virgin Mary” and studying question 56. 56. Was Mary the only biological parent of Jesus? Yes. While still a virgin, Mary submitted to the will of God and bore the Son of God. Therefore, she is held in high honor. However, in obedience to God, Joseph took Mary as his wife and raised Jesus as his son. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18–25; 13:55) We will conclude today with The Collect for Saint Mary the Virgin found on page 631 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

But man fell into sin, and with man all creation was cursed. Therefore, God spoke His Word again, this time into the womb of the blessed Virgin Mary. The glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle of our human nature (Ex. 40:17–21, 34–38). “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:1–14). The Son of God took on our flesh and blood and died on the cross in order that we might receive the right to become the children of God through faith.

Celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, the Immaculate Conception’s observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. The Immaculate Conception is the dogma that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. This doctrine states that Mary was preserved from the "stain of sin" from the first moment of her conception through a unique grace from God, granted in anticipation of her role as the mother of Jesus. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. E263.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, the faithful recall the apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Lourdes, which began on 11 February 1858.Mary appeared to a 14-year-old girl, Bernadette Soubirous, 18 times near a grotto along the banks of the Gave River in France.In the first apparition, fearing she was hallucinating and not knowing what to do, Bernadette Soubirous took her rosary out of her pocket and began to recite it, and the Virgin joined her in prayer.On 25 March, the Virgin revealed that she was the Immaculate Conception. This dogma of faith had been promulgated by Pope Pius IX on 8 December 1854.Lourdes is famous for its apparitions, especially for the message of hope it offers to all who suffer in body and spirit.Ever since the apparitions, Lourdes has been known as a place that welcomes all who are physically or spiritually ill and who, through the intercession of the Immaculate Conception, seek to rediscover peace, health, and serenity. Millions visit this Catholic pilgrimage annually.Seventy healings have been recognized by an autonomous group of physicians, along with many conversions.Still today, the Virgin Mary is the one who continues to intercede for her children, particularly for those who are weak, those who are physically and spiritually ill.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception states that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. The Catholic Church, particularly the Latin Rite, follows the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, which states that Mary was conceived without original sin. Other denominations that follow it include some Anglicans and Eastern Orthodox Churches, though the understanding and formulation differ, and many other Protestant denominations do not accept the doctrine. The Immaculate Conception is celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, whose observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854.

The Virgin Mary gave her name to a 14-year old girl near Lourdes, stating: "I am the Immaculate Conception." Lourdes is a town in southwestern France, in the foothills of the Pyrenees Mountains. It’s known for the Sanctuary of Notre-Dame de Lourdes, a major Catholic pilgrimage site. Each year, millions visit the Grotto of Massabielle (Grotto of the Apparitions) where, the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared 18 times (between 11 February and 16 July in 1858) to Saint Bernadette Soubirous. In the grotto or cave, pilgrims can drink or bathe in water flowing from a believed to be, miraculous spring.

The Immaculate Conception is the dogma that the Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin. This doctrine states that Mary was preserved from the "stain of sin" from the first moment of her conception through a unique grace from God, granted in anticipation of her role as the mother of Jesus. The Immaculate Conception is celebrated annually on December 8th as a solemn feast day, whose observance began with a Papal encyclical by Pope Pius IX, when he formally defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. Several years later, in 1858, the Blessed Mother gave her name to St. Bernadette at Lourdes stating, "I am the Immaculate Conception." A Protestant theologian and pastor offers an interesting appraisal of the Roman Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The annual Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes was established in 1890 for February 11 by Pope Leo XIII. E261.

Many aspects of Giovanni Battista Pergolesi's life seem relatively normal when it comes to composers of the Baroque era. He was prolific, died young, and his music became very famous only after his death. However, all three of these facts are complicated by the unique circumstances of Pergolesi's life. He was somewhat prolific, but dozens of pieces that were once attributed to him are no longer considered authentic, including much of the music that Igor Stravinsky made famous in his ballet Pulcinella. Pergolesi did not just die young; he died remarkably young, at the age of twenty-six, from tuberculosis. And the idea that he became famous only after his death actually made him unusual among composers of his time, when popularity during one's lifetime was the primary mark of success. Most composers quickly fell into obscurity after they died. In Pergolesi's case, the opposite occurred. There was a massive surge of interest in his music immediately after his death, which in some ways contributed to the museum-like atmosphere that classical music has today. Pergolesi was ahead of his time in many ways, and that brings us to the piece we are going to talk about today, his Stabat Mater. We will discuss what the Stabat Mater is in more detail later, but simply put, it is a musical setting of the poem Stabat Mater Dolorosa, which, in a rather clumsy translation, means "the sorrowful mother stood." This thirteenth-century Christian hymn and poem focuses on the Virgin Mary's suffering as she witnesses the crucifixion of Jesus. The text has been set to music by many composers, but Pergolesi's version, surprisingly given his relative obscurity today, has endured in a way that many settings by more famous composers have not. Today, on this Patreon-sponsored episode, we will learn a bit about Pergolesi's life, or at least what we know of it, and talk through this Baroque-era masterpiece. Join us!

In May 1986, a new airport opened in Knock in the west of Ireland. It was the dream of an Irish priest, Monsignor James Horan, who raised millions to have it built. The location for the airport seemed impossible – set in the boggy, foggy hills of rural County Mayo. However, Knock attracts more than a million pilgrims every year, who come to visit the supposed site of an apparition by the Virgin Mary and other saints. So, Horan convinced politicians that this remote western landscape could host a gateway to the world, and service the pilgrims who come to visit the shrine of Knock. Pearce Concannon was working at the local Knock Shrine when the airport opened and remembers when Horan asked him to quit his job and become a firefighter at his new airport. He speaks to Colm Flynn.

A grilled cheese sandwich, a tortilla, an auto loan company building, a cinnamon roll, and a forkful of spaghetti are just a handful of the places that images of religious figures have miraculously appeared in the United States. For this episode, we'll tell stories about mass pilgrimages made to quirky apparitions of Jesus, the Virgin Mary, and Mother Teresa, and show how some have embraced them as genuine spiritual manifestations while others have turned them into a kitschy, meme-worthy craze.
