3.26 ANCIENT FUTURE (wk5) The Wonder + Mystery of a Virgin Birth - a podcast by George Stull

Miraculous births were common in the ancient world. Is the virgin birth mentioned in the Apostles' Creed any different? Must we believe in a literal virgin birth to be biblical? Must we reject it to be reasonable?

SLIDE GEORGE READ IN THE GATHERING

Mary is not an icon to be reverenced, but the pattern for how the incarnation is to continue, for how God continues to take on flesh in this world.  And that pattern is perennially the same: we must say “yes” to the Holy Spirit giving birth in us love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

—Fr. Ronald Rolheiser
