Ave Maria!
Who are your influencers? Are there any issues with compatibility with your Catholic faith? In this week's Mary Live, join Dr. Mark Miravalle for a discussion of who should be our greatest influencers.
Mark Miravalle discusses the significant impact of influencers in the lives of Christians and Catholics, emphasizing the need to ensure these influencers align with Christian values and teachings. He reflects on Jesus as the ultimate influencer, highlighting a passage from John 12:23-26, where Jesus speaks about the necessity of sacrifice and service for true glory, contrasting it with the worldly perception of success. He underscores the importance of following influencers who promote a life of service, love, and sacrifice, akin to Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, rather than those who advocate for secular fulfillment and fame. He warns against the danger of losing one's uniqueness by imitating others without discerning their alignment with Christ's teachings. Furthermore, he calls for a reevaluation of the concepts of masculinity and femininity through the examples of Saint Joseph and the Blessed Virgin Mary, advocating for a Christian understanding of these roles. He concludes with a prayer to the Lady of All Nations, asking for grace to achieve true Christian femininity and masculinity, and for the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
