A young Protestant man recently attended Franciscan University’s Defending the Faith Conference.
For some time, he had been contemplating, studying, and praying about becoming Catholic. He was almost ready, but there was one remaining obstacle: the dogma of Mary’s bodily assumption.
Why was this Marian dogma a stumbling block for him?

He said, “I just can’t find enough biblical evidence to support it.”

In this special video for the Assumption of Mary, Dr. Shane Owens explores the biblical foundations for Mary's bodily assumption. He presents two key perspectives: Mary as the new Ark of the Covenant and Mary as the Mother of the Church

Dr. Owens shows that while Scripture alone may not conclusively prove this dogma, Sacred Tradition provides the essential key to unlocking this mystery hidden within the pages of Scripture.
As we celebrate the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we not only reflect on this great marvel, but also its mystery.
