Becoming Living Temples: Embracing the Example of the Theotokos
Update: 2024-12-06
Description
In this homily for the Feast of the Entrance of the Theotokos, Fr Bogdan Bucur emphasizes that the Theotokos, or Mother of God, is not an exceptional figure for us to admire from afar, but an example for us to follow closely in our own lives. Just as she became the living temple that bore Christ, we too are called to become living temples by "becoming pregnant" with the Word of God, allowing it to transform us. While the practical tasks of life are important, they should not overshadow the one thing needful—our connection with God. This feast reminds us to focus on becoming like the Theotokos, Christ-bearers and sanctified vessels of divine glory.
