Insightful wisdom into the character of Mary

I am Protestant and have never delved into the nature and character of Mary and her role in the life of Jesus as Messiah as well as her character as His Mother. The author's explanation of our own role in life as it relates to God through Jesus and his Mother has helped me develop a new focus into my own journey.

A woman for all to imitate

Fr. Suarez's reflections make our lady very accessible to the average reader. He draws out the intricacies of the various episodes of her life contained in the Gospels. Mary is a great stumbling block in dialog among Christians and so it is important to come to a deeper understanding of who she is, and the relationship we are meant to have with her. This book is largely a devotional work, but it also extremely useful in fleshing out the person of Mary.

Very Opus Dei Catholic Book

This Book will Change your way of thinking of about the virtue of silence and will give you profound contemplations on the Biblical life of Mary, Queen of Angels...

Great Book!

This book helps you to see Mary in a different light. Always doing the will of God even though she may not understand things at first, she has faith and contemplates everything. This book in particular goes into the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Presentation, the Finding in the Temple, the Hidden Life, the Wedding at Cana and Calvary. I recommend this read to everyone because it doesn't bore you to death as other books I've read about Mary. A quick and easy read.

Reflection on the major events in the life of Mary.

This is a really delightful book. It is not a heavy theological or academic work. Instead, it is a warm reflection on the key events in the life of Mary, mother of Jesus Christ. Events covered include the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Presentation, the Finding in the Temple, the Hidden Life, the Wedding at Cana and Calvary. This is a wonderful book for anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge of Mary on a personal, familiar level. And by the way, it is readily available from many religious bookstores and is not, to my knowledge, out of print. Scepter Publishers of New Rochelle, New York, still prints this title as far as I know.
