Episode 21 - The Rite of Consecration: The Ring

How can an ordinary woman be “mystically espoused” to Jesus Christ? Season 3 will discuss elements in the Rite of Consecration. 

In this episode, Karen, Hannah, Simi and Dawn discuss the first of the insignia of the Rite: the ring. 

What does the ring mean as a tangible sign of a consecrated virgin’s mystical espousal and covenant with Christ? What is it like to wear the ring for the first time? And how do we choose our rings?

Scripture for this episode: 

“You shall no more be termed Forsaken,

     and your land shall no more be termed Desolate;

but you shall be called My delight is in her,

    and your land Married;

for the Lord delights in you,

    and your land shall be married.

 For as a young man marries a virgin,

    so shall your sons marry you,

and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,

    so shall your God rejoice over you.

Isaiah 62: 4 - 5
