Follow in the footsteps of the first disciple of Jesus -- his mother, Mary. As readers take this pilgrimage of faith, their own faith will deepen along the way! This unique book focuses on ten important gospel scenes in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, from her fiat at the Annunciation to her presence in the upper room at Pentecost. Each chapter includes a poetic meditation; the Scripture passage to be studied; a series of questions for delving deeper into the meaning and significance of each scene; and questions for applying these truths to our own lives. The reflections conclude with a short portrait of another biblical character who exemplifies a trait demonstrated by Mary, along with an inspiring selection from a noted Catholic author.
