Episode 2 - Historical Context
Join Fr. Brett Jamrog and Guadalupe Missions' Founder Scott Watts as they kick off the first full-episode of Guadalupedia!
In this episode they discuss why Our Lady appeared where and when she did - December 1531 in the heart of the Aztec Empire.
Themes such as human sacrifice and the pagan roots of pre-Columbian Tenochtitlan are explained in some detail so that we can better understand the need for Mary's appearance, message and invitation. Concluding with the person of Juan Diego and the inspiration we can draw from Mary's choice of a humble, 57 year old widower to help bring about the conversion of the Americas.
