Worship for Dec. 19, 2021: When Mary got Banned

Sermon Notes from Pastor Amy — The Love commentary comes from The Bible Project. Watch the film here and experience their fun graphics along with their wise interpretation. A helpful article for the background came from Journey with Jesus. The film Adventus from The Work of the People features a number of theologians talking about the meaning of Advent including James Alison and Richard Rohr. And lastly, thanks to Dr. Jeff Gibbs for his insights on The Lutheran Hour.
