Mary, Mother of God
By clothing the Word with her flesh, the Virgin Mary made God visible, manifesting Christ as a perfect “image” of the Father. By virtue of this archetypal “artistry” of Incarnation, Mary mediates the tradition of Christian image-making. This volume explores images of the Mother of God in early modern devotion, piety, and power. The book is divided into four sections, the first three of which link the subjects thematically and geographically in Europe, while the last one follows Mary’s legacy. Contributors include: Elliott D. Wise, Anna Dlabačová, James Clifton, Kim Butler Wingfield, Barbara Baert, Steven Ostrow, Barbara Haeger, Shelley Perlove, Cristina Cruz González, and Mehreen Chida-Razvi.

No matter how many times you have read the “True Devotion to Mary”, you will find this commentary to be an eye-op...

She wants to help you receive as many graces from Holy Communion as you can. Case in point. She helped St. Louis-Marie de Montfort receive so many graces from Holy Communion that his best friend wrote about him: "During the talk I had with him he told me t...

The greatness of the future Saints! (“True Devotion to Mary” Series – Book 6)In his “True Devotion to Mary”, St. Louis-Marie de Montfort wrote: “The formation and the education of the great Saints who shall come at the end of the world are reserved for (Mary),” and, “I have said that this would come to pass particularly at the end of the world, and indeed presently, because the Most High with His holy Mother has to form for Himself great Saints, who shall surpass most of the other Saints in sanctity, as much as the cedars of Lebanon outgrow the little shrubs” [#47].
