Description
Jesus gave us his mother to be our mother, too: a singularly holy model, consoler, and intercessor for our spiritual journey. Yet most people don't understand the role that God wants her to play in our lives. In "Behold Your Mother", Tim Staples explores the Church's teachings about the Blessed Virgin Mary, showing their firm Scriptural and historical roots. Staples dismantles the objections of those who mistakenly believe that Mary competes for the attention due to Christ alone, combining recent scholarship with his own in-depth knowledge of the arguments. He shows how all the Marian doctrines are relevant - even essential - to a salvific faith in Jesus, from her divine maternity to her perpetual virginity, from her Immaculate Conception to her Assumption. The Church's core teachings about Mary are intertwined with the mysteries of Christ, and Mary matters. This book provides a thorough and useful Marian apologetic, helping readers understand the significance of Mary in their spiritual journey.
