There’s Something about Mary

The Theology Pugcast

In this episode, the Pugsters take a look at Mariology from a Protestant perspective. While they don’t agree with a number of elements of the Catholic doctrines of Mary, the guys agree that Protestants don’t pay enough attention to her and that there are many valuable things she can teach us. As usual, the conversation ranges over a variety of topics, including the term “Mother of God” vs. Theotokos, prayer to saints, what virginity meant in the ancient world, and relics.

A correction, thanks to some of our Catholic listeners: Catholics bow when the incarnation is mentioned in the Nicene Creed. The focus of the bow is to acknowledge that miracle, not to single out Mary.
