Father Leo discusses the Vatican's recent doctrinal clarification on Marian titles, particularly the use of “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces.” He unpacks the historical and theological background behind the titles, emphasizing that the document is not a demotion of Mary but a clarification to avoid confusion. Drawing on his credentials as a Mariologist, Father Leo explains why past popes used these terms without proclaiming them as dogma and why that matters today. He cautions against turning the issue into a political debate and urges Catholics to deepen their understanding of Mary’s role in salvation. Ultimately, the clarification invites a more theologically precise devotion that always points back to Christ.
