Mary’s song in Luke 1:46-55 has been sung to gorgeous music over
the centuries. We may miss, though, that it’s also a protest song of
sorts, calling for some radical upheaval in the world. This sermon takes
a look at Mary’s context (the Roman Empire) and at a contemporary
television show (“Empire”) to explore how we might be called to flip our
own empires.I reference a clip from “Empire” in the podcast and you can
watch that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXo7IIO9uU8
