In this episode of Beloved & Blessed’s Women’s Bible Study, Kimberly Hahn unpacks the Third Glorious Mystery—the Descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.

Gathered in the upper room, the nascent Church prays for and receives the same Spirit that overshadowed Mary at the Incarnation, empowering them to go forth as the Mystical Body of Christ.

In this episode, you’ll learn the biblical origin of praying novenas, the Jewish roots of the feast of Pentecost, and why the Holy Spirit descends as “tongues of fire.”

Through these meditations, you’ll discover why the fruit of this Third Glorious Mystery is charity.
