1. Three Mary Modules

The Virgin Mary is hidden throughout Scripture. How does her story connect to the rest of Scripture?

  • If Christ is the Second Adam, who is the Second Eve?
  • What was the Ark of the Covenant? What did it contain? Where is it referenced in the Gospel? What or WHO is the New Ark?
  • What were the features of the Kingdom of Israel and how are these fulfilled in the Kingdom of Heaven?
  • EACH OF THESE IS EXPLAINED IN A TWO-HOUR VIDEO!



2. six plus hours of courses

In addition to three two-hour long modules on Mary as the New Eve, the New Ark, and the New Queen, you will also have access to printed materials, ebooks, and additional videos all on the Blessed Mother.

The course includes a LIVE online Q&A session. We'll sit down and chat over the material. Feel free to ask me whatever questions you have about Mary. I would also like to hear what questions you've encountered out in the world!
This will be like chatting over a cup of coffee. I'll likely come to the Live Q&A mug in hand!
