Document Summary
Vatican council ii (1962-1965) was a watershed for the catholic church: affected all aspects of catholic life, and certainly one of these is catholic theology. One area of catholic theology that has undergone a substantial change in orientation as a result of recent advances in scripture scholarship is the theology of mary, the mother of god. This new-think, which was evident in the discussions at vatican ii, popular devotion to the mother of god has gone through change. Mary, the mother of god, is an essential part of teaching of the catholic church. Since mary is the mother of jesus, she is also the mother of the church (ccc 963) The church is jesus carrying on his mission on earth to teach, to heal and to give glory to. We are the church, we live with the life of christ, we carry on his mission to the world.
