Mary: The Gift of Mercy - Explaining the Faith

What is Mary's role in salvation history? Why do Catholics honor her? Why do we turn to her intercession?
Fr. Chris explains how Mary is The Gift of Mercy in this episode of Explaining the Faith.

Mother Mary is a great Mother.
She saved my life.
I was dead for 15min. She brought me back to life.

Fr. Chris we learn a lot from your talk about our Faith. Thank very much.

I am a true witness to the statement “if you invoke the Blessed Virgin when you are tempted, she will come at once to your help, and Satan will leave you”. When I am tempted I always pray the Hail Mary and I’m always left with peace in my soul and not wanting to sin ❤️🙏🙂☘️

When I call upon Mary, I always feel love in my heart. She has such a beautiful heart ❤️

[helenbeggs]

Mary is the new arc of the covenant: Absolutely ❤️🙏🙂☘️

If Mary is good enough for Jesus to be His Mother, why can't she be good enough to be my mother too? WOW. Thank you St Maximilian Kolbe, and thank you Father Alar for this wonderful teaching on our Blessed Mother!

Mary is untying the knot by sending us Father Chris Alar. May she help in grow in all virtues and crown him with serenity while striving to do God's will.

[St.Joseph]

As someone who wrestled from the age of 7-19, I love hearing your story about it father. I know I'm 3 years a little late on these explaining the faith videos, but I sure do love and appreciate everything you do! God bless you all 🙏🏻

[SilverRose]

I am always listening - thank you so much for all your teachings - I am very grateful to God for amazing priests like you - God bless you always 🙏

Just today, My Son asked me "why do we call, Mary Mother of God?, " I told him, go to school will give an answer after school" and then this sermon kept blinking on my youtube search as I was searching other Mother of God, Mother of Church, My Mother, Thanks.

Father Chris Alar, never apologize for running so long with your talks. I have never seen two hours of a talk go by so fast in my entire life as yours do and I always want more when they end. So thank you for these incredible talks because they have been lifechanging. I am finally understanding the faith.

Love this!!! #true oh Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee!
Our Lady Queen of Hearts pray for us Amen

[miming]

Oh Mary, the most pure, conceived without sin, pray for us and the conversion of my family and the world.

[immaculateheart]

This teaching is absolutely outstanding! All Catholics need to hear this and protestants.
