The Presbyterian and The Priest‘s Podcast

There‘s something about Mary

In this episode we hear from Ed Peterson about the Catholic understanding and view of Mary. This can be a subject that divides opinion and so at Christmas we wanted to focus in on Mary and seek to find a way to celebrate friendship and diversity. She's a pretty big part of the Christmas story after all!

Wary about Mary

Welcome to Episode 3 in which we welcome Rev. Steve Stockman, minister of Fitzroy Presbyterian, and long time friend of Clonard. He comes along to share his own perspective, and poem, on Mary. This is the penultimate episode in Advent, so if you have any questions or comments for us, please email presbyterianandpriest@gmail.com
