Stephen Graham's seminal work, 'The Way of Martha and the Way of Mary,' delves with meticulous scholarship into the dichotomous spiritual landscapes of Eastern and Western Christianity. Written with a comparative lens, Graham's narrative unfolds across Russia and Egypt, regions emblematic of his focus. The book's literary style juxtaposes the experiential and the academic, harmonizing firsthand observations with theological analysis, a technique that situates it firmly within the broader conversation of religious studies in the twentieth century. The text, rich in its examination of cultural and doctrinal divergencies, provides an invaluable perspective rarely incorporated into the Western-centric discourse of the time, resonating with scholars and theologians alike. Originally intended as a lecture series, this 1915 publication forms a cornerstone in the comparative study of Christian practice and ideology. Stephen Graham, an astute observer of religious expression, was profoundly shaped by his extensive travels and the global upheavals of his time. His keen insight into the intersection of culture and faith is born of a deeply personal journey through the spiritual terrains of the Eastern Orthodox and the Western Protestant and Catholic worlds. The embodied experiences of the author during his time away from America informed his perspectives and inevitably led to this erudite examination. By immersing himself in divergent Christian communities, Graham cultivated a rich understanding of the subtle and overt distinctions that characterize the global Christian mosaic. 'The Way of Martha and the Way of Mary' is therefore a must-read for students of religious and cultural studies, imparting a nuanced understanding of the complexities inherent to Christian traditions. Graham's geographical and intellectual odyssey beckons the academically inclined and the theologically curious to embark on a similar journey through the pages of his work. The book stands as an enduring testament to the richness of comparative theology and serves as an inspiration to those who seek to reconcile the varied expressions of a faith that spans continents and cultures.

How do you walk with your children during times of struggle and crisis? Do you feel as if nothing you do will be enough? In Mary's Way, a heartfelt book for moms who struggle to guide children through the various stages of their lives, Catholic speaker and teacher Judy Landrieu Klein shows how her own crisis of faith helped her release her children to the care of the Blessed Mother. In doing so, Klein shows you how to find the love, joy, and peace of Our Lord as you surrender your will to him. Judy Landrieu Klein struggled with her faith as she lived through her son’s near-fatal addiction to drugs and her daughter’s painful anxiety. She discovered she couldn’t handle the relentless pressure of life not measuring up to her expectations and it was eating away at her family. Klein considered Mary’s reaction to the events in the life of Jesus. She meditated on Mary’s fiat and her prayer of total surrender to God’s will and saw how this act of obedience carried on throughout Mary’s life as she witnessed the life of her son. As Klein focused on her devotion to the Blessed Mother, her life and faith were transformed. In Mary’s Way, Klein reflects on the Annunciation and describes her own to struggle to embrace the will of God by surrendering control of her family planning. She meditates on Mary’s powerlessness during the Crucifixion, finding a place of calming surrender during her own son’s escalating battle with addiction. Klein shows how you can become a more powerful intercessor for yourself and your children. When you finish reading this book, you’ll find yourself turning to Mary and surrendering yourself and your children more fully to God.

"Robison's minimalism is more like a slap in the face: it's short, it stings, and you wonder who in tarnation did that to you." —The New York Times Enter Eve. Based in New Orleans, she's a location scout for a movie production company and complacently married to Adam. ""Now you know,"" she says. ""Our names really didn't bother me that much until the mail started arriving addressed to 'Adam and Eve Broussard.'"" He's just been diagnosed with a grave illness and gone back to the palatial family home where his parents reside. It's all just fine with Eve—or so she tells herself at the beginning. But standing left of center in this still–prosperous but mortally wounded family does not get easier as the weeks wear on. As she negotiates her way around the anger of Adam's despised twin brother Saunders, maintains her friendship with his beautiful and volatile wife Petal, and protects what's left of the innocence of her niece Collie, Eve finds more than the Louisiana heat oppressive.

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.”

"You seek a description of a new way, a new time, as if it is a future that is already written. It is a future waiting to be birthed. An imminent birth that you are feeling with all your mothering instincts and concern for the new babe, the jewel of humanity and Heaven." Thus begins Mirari: The Way of the Marys. In Mirari, Mari Perron, who received A Course of Love twenty years ago, enters an intimate exchange with Mary of Nazareth. Their dialogue gives life to "the way of Mary," briefly introduced in her earlier work. In this new book, Perron departs from the classic style of "the course" and surprises us with her own vulnerability. In words spoken intimately between Mary of Nazareth and Mari Perron, our hearts are called to embrace our knowing in all its fullness. Uniting the feminine and masculine within, wholeness of being joins wholeheartedness, releasing all the feelings of the sacred heart. We can now welcome our grief over the way that is passing. Grief is "alive with soul and depth and longing." It empowers us to leave the old behind. As we cease to think of ourselves as learning beings, new ways of knowing arise. We become creators of The New. Here, the two women follow A Course of Love's call for "creation of the new" with the labor of the birth and the "Mother laws of care and nurture-given to all." Together, they demonstrate the radical energy that arises from within each one's felt knowing. From our union in relationship, we know that the time is here to give birth to a new age. Mary of Nazareth was not unfamiliar with this call or the grief that accompanied it. Her life, as well as the life of Jesus, announced an unwelcome breach in the old order. So too is it with A Course of Love and the new Way of the Marys. Mari Perron shares her personal experience of receiving A Course of Love and knowing this was not more "learned wisdom." She mourned that the call to "unlearning," key to a new way of knowing, went unheard. Mary and Mari assure us that it is from a feminine way of knowing-deeper than thought, and impossible to learn-that The New will arise. It is a courageous act to not be willing to repeat the past. But letting it go is part of healing our own and the collective feminine wound. This healing opens the way, not only to unifying the feminine and masculine, but for the birth of an age that will end all such divisions. The two women invite us to rise up and join in the blossoming of a New Advent. We claim our time of Mirari: the wonder of coming to know the unknown that is our inheritance. In this essential feminine way, we welcome receptive revelation that does not take us away from life or the personal milieu in which it occurs. Instead, it joins them fully. Mari Perron knows that it is time for the feminine voice of God and of women to be recognized as a power that has always been-but been denied. Increasingly, her writings champion the ways, often discounted, in which women come to know. Mirari: The Way of the Marys presents a vision that will mid-wife the birth of The New. We begin with a word both new and ancient. We begin with a return to the way of the Word made flesh. This will be the time of wonder-or Mirari. From Mirari: The Way of the Marys Here, in our time of bringing the miracle to mystery . . . we offer Mirari as the way of the divine feminine . . . From Mirari: The Way of the Marys This is not the masculine energy of going out to conquer the world. This is the birth of the new world.

In this captivating Depression-era set novel by New York Times bestselling author Mary Monroe, two couples find their grudges endangering more than their Alabama small town’s deceptive peace . . . When good-time couple Milton and Yvonne Hamilton moved one house over from the respectable-but-restless Odell and Joyce Watson, it was a fast friendship of shared secrets—and secret jealousies and betrayals. Their alliance was bound to crash and burn, but the Hamiltons won’t quite let the flame die out, even after scandalous accusations get them arrested . . . Odell would do anything to be free of his bootlegging, blackmailing, money extorting neighbors and recover the peaceful—and financially prosperous—life he and Joyce once had. But Milton and Yvonne seem to always bounce back from bad luck, and this time they’ve returned angrier, and greedier, than ever. Determined to get what Odell “owes” them, the Hamiltons have a big surprise for Joyce too, one that shows how far they will go to get revenge . . . Now pushed past his breaking point, Odell is sure he’s got a foolproof plan to end the scheming once and for all. But it soon spirals into lies, shattering violence, and permanent damage that will roil their tranquil community, and alter his and Joyce’s world forever . . .

A Treatise on the True Devotion on the Blessed Virgin or True Devotion to Mary is considered the greatest book on the Blessed Virgin Mary ever written and has been recommended and practiced by eight Popes. This is the original "scrupulously faithful" translation by Father Frederick William Faber. The great Marian Pope, Blessed Pope John Paul II practiced this Devotion to Mary, in his Letter to the Monfort Fathers he says: "A work destined to become a classic of Marian spirituality was published 160 years ago. St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort wrote the Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin at the beginning of the 1700s, but the manuscript remained practically unknown for more than a century. When, almost by chance, it was at last discovered in 1842 and published in 1843, the work was an instant success, proving extraordinarily effective in spreading the "true devotion" to the Most Holy Virgin. "When we praise her, love her, honor her or give anything to her, it is God who is praised, God who is loved, God who is glorified, and it is to God that we give, through Mary and in Mary (Treatise on True Devotion, n. 225)." Included is a supplementary 33-Day Preparation for Total Consecration. Paintings are by Bartolome Esteban Murillo.

A masterpiece that combines the visions of four great Catholic mystics into one coherent story on the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Based primarily on the famous revelations of Ven. Anne Catherine Emmerich and Ven. Mary of Agreda, it also includes many episodes described in the writings of St. Bridget of Sweden and St. Elizabeth of Schenau. To read this book, therefore, is to share in the magnificent visions granted to four of the most priviledged souls in the history of the Church. In complete harmony with the Gospel story, this book reads like a masterfully written novel. It includes such fascinating details as the birth and infancy of Mary, her espousal to St. Joseph and her Assumption into Heaven where she was crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth. For young and old alike, The Life of Mary As Seen by the Mystics will forever impress the reader with an inspiring and truly unforgettable understanding of the otherwise unknown facts concerning Mary and the Holy Family.
