Reflections

  • What did Mary’s nights look like when Jesus wouldn’t sleep?

  • What was Jesus like as a newborn?

  • What was the first quiet moment when everyone finally left and Mary was simply alone with her newborn son?

  • Beneath the Veil: Grief, Prayer, and Finding a Place for Loss in Catholic Faith

  • What did childbirth actually feel like for Mary?

  • Did Mary ever look at Joseph during that journey with an expression that clearly meant, “Do not speak to me right now”? 

  • What was Mary thinking during the journey to Bethlehem when she was heavily pregnant, uncomfortable, and very possibly sick of being on the road?

  • What did reconciliation look like after an ordinary disagreement between them?

  • What habit of Mary’s might have made Joseph quietly sigh?

  • Did Mary and Joseph Ever Annoy Each Other?
