Today is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, one of the most important Marian dogmas in the Catholic Church and a holy day of obligation for every Catholic. This feast is not about Jesus being conceived, but about the moment God preserved Mary from original sin so she could become the spotless vessel who would carry the Savior of the world. The Immaculate Conception reveals God’s long plan of salvation, stretching from Genesis all the way to the Annunciation.

In this video, I talk about why this feast matters, why Catholics are required to attend Mass today, and why honoring our holy days is not optional or cultural… it is part of the rhythm of our covenant with God. The Church doesn’t just give us dates on a calendar. She gives us mysteries meant to shape our souls.

I filmed this right in my car after Mass because I was fired up in the best way. We walk through Scripture together. We look at Mary as the New Eve. We reflect on the readings from Genesis and Luke. And we talk about the beauty, dignity, and purpose behind the Immaculate Conception.

But we also talk about something deeper. We live in a culture that doesn’t respect religious life, religious practice, or the sacred. And in so many ways, Catholics have stopped fighting for the freedom to live their faith boldly. Today’s holy day reminds us that our worship matters. Our witness matters. And our obedience to the Church’s teachings matters.

If you want a deeper understanding of the Immaculate Conception, the meaning of this holy day, and why going to Mass today is essential, this conversation will give you clarity, courage, and renewed love for your faith.

Take a moment. Sit with me. And let this feast day transform the way you see Mary… and your own call to holiness.
