  1. A Prelude to the Next Season: The Mary Episode

    08/10/2025

    A Prelude to the Next Season: The Mary Episode

    In this special crossover episode, Michael Gungor shares an intimate reflection from his new Loving This podcast series, Magnificat — a journey through the songs, symbols, and spiritual questions behind his latest album. This episode centers on Mary — the divine feminine, the cosmic mother, and the presence of love that births the world again and again. Through story, song, and meditation, Michael explores how the archetype of Mary lives in all of us — as compassion, surrender, and creative power. It’s both a return and a beginning — a bridge between The Liturgists and what’s emerging next. Stay tuned for a new season of The Liturgists coming early next year: conversations with voices that help us feel a little less alone.
