How Lutherans Approach Mother Mary | Dr. David Petersen

This discussion delves into the role of Mary in Christianity, particularly from a Lutheran perspective. Bryan and Dr. David Petersen explore the idea of Mary as the "New Eve," drawing comparisons between her obedience to God's will and Eve's actions in the Garden of Eden.
