Bishop Robert Barron

Friends, on this Fourth Sunday of Advent, we come to the Advent figure par excellence: the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. What I want to do in this homily is to look at some of the Church’s classical titles of Mary. These are not simply pious exclamations, but rather very substantive insights into her role in bringing Christ to birth—both in history and in us today.

Reading I – Mi 5:1-4a

Psalm – Ps 80:2-3, 15-16, 18-19.

Reading II – Heb 10:5-10

Gospel — Lk 1:39-45
