     | 19,855 views

    Who will say with Mary: The Lord has looked with favor on my lowliness. My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.

    The song of Mary is the oldest Advent hymn. It is also the most passionate, the wildest, and one might almost say the most revolutionary Advent hymn that has ever been sung. This is not the gentle, tender, dreamy Mary as we often see her portrayed in paintings. The Mary who is speaking here is ...read more

    In the Gospels we see two separate but distinct accounts of Jesus being anointed by women. Today let's take a look at the reactions of the Pharisees, the disciples and the "anointers" and see how we measure up.
