Lesson Overview

Many are familiar with the story of the angel Gabriel’s pronouncement to Mary that she, a virgin, would give birth to a Son. But who was Mary, the mother of Jesus, and what can we learn from her life? In this lesson, Dr. Cohick explores the social and cultural world in which Mary lived, what her life tells us about Jesus, and the applications we can draw from her testimony.

Lesson Objectives

  • Identify significant events from the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus.
