Essay on Church Life Journal: Gregory the Great and the Marian Mold of the Church

An essay I wrote about Pope St. Gregory the Great, Mary Magdalene, and the Marian shape of the Church is on Church Life Journal! It was a real treat getting to know the humble, kind-hearted Gregory over the summer. I especially treasure his reflection on Mary Magdalene (referenced in this piece) and am so thrilled to share parts of it here on CLJ. You can read the whole thing here!
