Book Synopsis Walking with Mary by : Edward Sri
Download or read book Walking with Mary written by Edward Sri. This book was released on 2013-09-10. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary appears only a few times in the Bible, but those few passages come at crucial moments. Catholics believe that Mary is the ever-virgin Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven and Earth. But she also was a human being--a woman who made a journey of faith through various trials and uncertainties and endured her share of suffering. Even with her unique graces and vocation, Mary remains a woman we can relate to and from whom we have much to learn. In Walking with Mary, Edward Sri looks at the crucial passages in the Bible concerning Mary and offers insight about the Blessed Mother's faith and devotion that we can apply in our daily lives. We follow her step-by-step through the New Testament account of her life, reflecting on what the Scriptures tell us about how she responded to the dramatic events unfolding around her. “This book is the fruit of my personal journey of studying Mary through the Scriptures, from her initial calling in Nazareth to her painful experience at the cross,” writes Edward Sri “It is intended to be a highly readable, accessible work that draws on wisdom from the Catholic tradition, recent popes, and biblical scholars of a variety of perspectives and traditions. With the riches of these insights, we will ponder what her journey of faith may have been like in order to draw out spiritual lessons for our own walk with God.” He add, “It is my hope, therefore, that whether you are of a Catholic, Protestant, or other faith background, this book may help you to know, understand, and love Mary more, and that it may inspire you to walk in her footsteps as a faithful disciple of the Lord in your own pilgrimage of faith.”

Book Synopsis Mary of Nazareth by : Jean Vaughn
Download or read book Mary of Nazareth written by Jean Vaughn. This book was released on 2012-02-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary, an ordinary young woman of Nazareth in Galilee, is called by God to live an extraordinary life. Like her ancestors, Abraham and Sara, Moses, Hannah, and Elizabeth, she says, “Yes.” This is Mary’s story from the annunciation by the angel Gabriel to her last days in Jerusalem. The story ends there where Mary goes first to live with the apostle John, then when John goes to Epheses, she lives alone under the care of her son James who is the leader of the Jerusalem Church. Joseph and Jesus are also major characters, but only in the sense that Mary is involved in their lives, and the account is essentially about Mary. Her last great gift is when she collaborates with Dr. Luke in writing his Gospel, which contains events that only Mary would know. Then Luke and Mary write another great letter to the fledging Hebrews who are gradully coming into the fold of the Church. Mary’s story does not end with her death, but with her restoration with Joseph and Jesus in Paradise. Mary is mentioned twelve times in the New Testament of the Bible. Each of these is used to imagine what it would be like to be Mary in a time when she would become pregant before marrige, eventually see her son crucified, and be remembered many centuries later. An Antiphony follows each of the twelve parts of the Book told in Mary’s own words. Carefully researched, the text depicts life in Nazareth, Egypt, and Jerusalem.

Book excerpt: Based on the highly successful theatrical motion picture, this beautiful volume combines inspiring commentary and meditations by the very popular Marian priest, Fr. Donald Calloway, with over 65 lovely photos from the movie. The insightful text and captivating pictures tell the moving story of the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, from childhood through the Resurrection of her son, Jesus Christ. Acclaimed for the beauty of its stunning photography, the film Mary of Nazareth won high praise from both attendees and film reviewers. One film reviewer, commenting on the beauty of the photography, stated that "It seemed to me to be a living, moving Caravaggio painting-with its rich color palette and the subtle interplay of light and shadows." This book captures that deep beauty of the film images with its many striking photos. Fr. Calloway, a Marian scholar well-known for his great love of Our Lady who has written extensively about her, presents in this volume short but profound insights and meditations about Mary, her unique life, her deep relationship with Jesus Christ, her special role in the story of salvation, and her importance to all Christians. This book is a wonderful companion volume to the DVD of the popular film, as well as a work that will bring inspiration and insight to all readers about the mysterious life of love, faith and sacrifice of the woman God chose to be the Mother of the Savior of mankind, Mary of Nazareth. "Mary of Nazareth is the woman of a full and total ‘Here I am" to the Divine Will. In her ‘yes', even when faced with the sorrow of the loss of her Son, we find complete and profound beatitude." - Pope Benedict XVI
