Praying With Our Sorrowful Mother: Reflections on the Seven Sorrows of Mary - Paperback

by Jacob Powell (Author), Shawna Navaro (Illustrator)

Praying with Our Sorrowful Mother is a unique book that explores the riches of the interior life of Mary. Through her seven sorrows, the Blessed Virgin's soul is opened to humanity in a unique way. Her inestimable love of God and perfectly virtuous life is on display as she embraces her cross and shares in the Passion of Christ. It is intended to guide the reader through Mary's most difficult episodes of her earthly life in order to reveal her remarkable qualities, encourage a stronger Marian devotion and reveal God's majesty. Too often, Mary's interior beauty is ignored, forgotten, or not considered. The characteristics of Mary's torment and the reflections of each of her seven sorrows found in this book enable readers to connect to Mary through their own tribulations. In turn, Mary helps them to embrace their cross by following her example and developing a richer relationship with her. These intimate meditations expose Mary's interior beauty which captivates every person who sees it.
