00:00 – 5:08 Why do we call the Theotokos Panagia? Lots of reasons, including our understanding of salvation.
2:21 – 4:41 Why the incarnation? And why is Jesus also called “Christ”?
5:08 – 18:56 What's the big deal with Mary?
15:20 – 18:56 Why do we believe that the Theotokos is “ever-virgin”? Why do we venerate her above other saints?
18:56 – 23:06 Why does it feel weird to venerate/pray for our Lady's intercessions in the beginning when coming from Protestant backgrounds?
23:06 – 28:04 What is the significance of the Dormition?
28:04 – 30:16 Why do we fast for it?
30:16 – 31:11 What are some practical things we can do/prayers to pray to further connect with the Theotokos?
