Pregnant with God

This sermon is a beautiful meditation on the role of Mary, the mother of Jesus, as the Theotokos, or God Bearer. Brother John uses the image of Mary, pregnant with the Messiah to describe our own call to carry God to the world. Every parent (or child, really) knows that we ultimately have to give our children to the world. Our role is to nurture and prepare them to be a gift and contribution to the world. John beautifully describes our mission, given by Christ, to carry God to the world in a very similar way.
