In this new episode of Stunned by Scripture, Dr. John Bergsma is joined by fellow theologian Dr. Mary Healy.

Dr. Healy shares her spiritual journey and profound encounter with the Holy Spirit that led her into an extensive study of Sacred Scripture. She reflects on her academic pursuits and how her studies deepened her relationship with the Lord, ultimately guiding her into ecclesial commission, celibate consecration, and biblical scholarship.

Following this conversation, Dr. Bergsma and Dr. Healy turn their attention to the Holy Spirit and Scripture. They explore the presence of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament and discuss how the Spirit truly inspired the Bible. The discussion then shifts to discernment of the Holy Spirit in one's daily life. Finally, they reflect on the importance of Scripture for practicing Catholics and the role of the Blessed Mother within Sacred Scripture.
