In this Bible study led by Mr. Anthony Ally, we discuss the Dormition of the Theotokos—Mary’s falling asleep in the Lord—and why the Church has always honored this feast. Using Scripture, early Church history, and the witness of the Fathers, we address common misunderstandings, especially from Protestant circles, about Mary’s role in salvation history, her death, and her place in the life of the Church. Through engaging discussion, we explore how the Dormition points us to Christ, deepens our hope in the resurrection, and affirms the faith once delivered to the saints.
For additional context, this is a 2 parter and we heavily recommend you listen to both to get a fuller understanding of the subject material.
