Does God just want us to feel good about ourselves?

Mary’s Queenship: The Crown of Discipleship May 11, 2021

Show notes

If we want Christ’s kingdom to truly reign in our hearts, let us learn from Mary. As we honor Mary during the month of May, Dr. Sri highlights how Mary’s queenship exemplifies three key biblical aspects of discipleship- she listened to God's voice, she gave up everything, and she persevered through sufferings. If we do these three things we too can reign with Christ.

Snippet from the Show

“No other human person has allowed Christ’s kingdom to reign more in their hearts than Mary.”
