Product Description

▼▲

Drawing primarily from the Gospel of Luke, this lovely book of spiritual reflections reveals a Lenten Mary who teaches us about being disciples. The result is a complex, inviting, strong character---a disciple to be emulated by all Christians, especially during this holy season. With a study for each week of Lent, along with questions to ponder, this is a thought-provoking volume for private use or parish study.

Tim Perry, an Anglican and professor of theology at Providence College in Ontario, specializes in the history of Marian doctrinal development for Protestants.

Publisher's Description

▼▲

Everyone is happy to see Mary in the creche at Christmastime, but by the time the Magi head back East after the Feast of the Epiphany, Christians of many traditions are often ready to place Mary to the side, too.
But in Blessed Is She, Timothy Perry presents a Mary who belongs in Lent as much as in Advent, who shows what it means to die and live with the crucified and risen Jesus.Drawing primarily from the Gospel of Luke, this lovely book of devotions sketches a Lenten Mary who teaches us about being disciples. The result is a complex, inviting, strong character a disciple to be emulated by all Christians, especially during this holy season.
With a meditation for each day of Lent, along with reflection questions, this is a thought-provoking volume for private use or parish study.

This study of Mary in Lent is insightful and deep while written for all levels of faith and education. Perry debunks popular myths about Mary, resulting in a more amazing picuture of her impact on Christianity. Mary said "yes" to the most important question in history without knowing the details of how, when and what the cost would be. Her faith and God's grace team up to change the world. Well written, good examples in modern culture to put concepts in perspective and deep questions to make the reader think. This book is good for private study and group discussion alike.
