The Woman: The Mystery of Mary as Mediatrix in the Teaching of Fulton J. Sheen Peter J Howard

As the Church approaches the apex of the most extraordinary Marian age in history, the Holy Spirit is unveiling the deepest secrets concerning His Bride, who revealed herself to St. Bernadette as The Immaculate Conception. The visions granted to St. Catherine Laboure in 1830, which led to the molding of the Miraculous Medal, and the teachings of St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe emphasized an inseparable relation between Mary as The Immaculate Conception and her special role as Mediatrix of all graces. How do we best understand the full import of this role and its relevance to a Church navigating through the most turbulent seas in her history? Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, called by many "a prophet for our times," provides some of the most penetrating insights into this mystery, so that no matter what one's prior understanding is of the Mother of God, they will never look at her the same way again. Enjoy fresh and invigorating insights into the mystery of the one chosen to bridge a fallen humanity with the Holy Trinity...the one whose unique place in the history of salvation is unveiled by the singular title..."The Woman."
