## Resource

If you’ve ever wondered why Catholics dedicate the entire month of May to Mary or why the Church calls her Queen.. this video walks through the actual biblical and theological foundation behind it. We go through the structure of the Davidic kingdom and the role of the queen mother, how Jesus fulfills the New Adam, why Mary is understood as the New Eve, and how her queenship flows directly from her divine motherhood. This isn’t something the Church added later, it’s rooted in Scripture and carried through the earliest Christian teaching. I also break down common objections around Marian devotion, including questions about intercession, idolatry and why Catholics ask for Mary’s prayers at all. If you’ve never heard this explained clearly this will give you the full framework.
