Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the cross Jesus gave us his mother to be our mother, too: a singularly holy model, consoler, and intercessor for our spiritual journey. Yet most Protestants, and too many Catholics don't understand the role that God wants her to play in our lives. In Behold Your Mother, Tim Staples takes you through the Church's teachings about the Blessed Virgin Mary, showing their firm Scriptural and historical roots and dismantling the objections of those who mistakenly believe that Mary competes for the attention due Christ alone. Combining the best recent scholarship with a convert's in-depth knowledge of the arguments, Staples has assembled the most thorough and useful Marian apologetic you'll find anywhere. Relevant and essential -- Mary matters. Read Behold Your Mother and find out just how much.
Download or read book Immaculate Sounds written by Cesar D. Favila and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was mid-December 1610 in Mexico City. The Church was in its preparatory season of Advent, leading up to the celebration of Christ's birth at Christmas. The nuns of the Encarnacion convent had just celebrated the feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, on 8 December. But now, in this time usually filled with joy, some of the nuns were nervous. Their choirbooks were missing. Without them, the nuns would not be able to celebrate the anniversary of Christ's birth adequately. A musician priest of the metropolitan cathedral, located just three blocks from the convent, had caused the nuns' alarm: Antonio Rodríguez Mata (d. 1643) had all five of the missing books. He had borrowed them from Sister Flor de Santa Clara, the convent "vicaria de coro" (choir vicar) but had failed to return them despite the convent's repeated requests. The diocesan vicar general and the attorney general were summoned. The nuns of the Encarnación demanded that Mata be imprisoned if he failed to return the books immediately following the denunciation. The threat of jail time was serious, but so too was the alleged offense: Mata was impeding the nuns from performing their liturgical music for Christmas"--
Download or read book Led by the Immaculata written by Joshua Mazrin and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Maximilian Kolbe is one of the most well-known and well-loved saints of all time. Many are familiar with the story of his selfless act at Auschwitz, where he sacrificed his own life to save a man who was a husband and father. But do you know about Kolbe’s deep love for Mary, whom he called the Immaculata? How he surrendered everything to Our Lady to grow in holiness and align his will to the will of God? How he consecrated his life to Mary? In Led by the Immaculata, Joshua Mazrin, a Kolbe devotee and Mariology expert, will introduce you to St. Maximilian Kolbe, explain the meaning of consecration and the objectives of the Knights of the Immaculata, walk you through the fourteen doable and practical steps of the consecration, and provide a step-by-step plan for completing the consecration. Kolbe taught that by giving our lives completely to Mary, the Immaculata, she would direct our will to the will of the Holy Spirit—that is, the will of God. Kolbe wanted this message shared far and wide and so founded the Knights of the Immaculata with the goal of consecrating as many people as possible to Mary and her son. Each step of the consecration journey is explained in practical and theological terms, making it accessible to all, regardless of vocation or age. While Kolbe initially targeted men, the principles of holiness are equally relevant to women. The book concludes by empowering you—men and women alike—to be evangelists for the Immaculata and the Gospel and to be spiritual leaders in your family, workplace, and community. Led by the Immaculata invites you to embrace a deeper devotion to Mary and emulate Kolbe’s path to holiness through the practical application of the fourteen steps in your daily life.

Download or read book Music and Performance in the Book of Hours written by Michael Alan Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uncovers the musical foundations and performance suggestions of books of hours, guides to prayer that were the most popular and widespread books of the late Middle Ages. Exploring a variety of musical genres and sections of books of hours with musical implications, this book presents a richly textured sound world gleaned from dozens of extant manuscript sources from fifteenth-century France. It offers the first overview of the musical content of these handbooks to liturgy and devotional prayer, together with cues that show scribal awareness for the articulation of sacred plainchants. Although books of hours lack musical notation, this survey elucidates the full range of musical genres and styles suggested both within and beyond the liturgical offices prescribed in books of hours. Privileging sound and ritual enactment in the experience of the hours, the survey complements studies of visual imagery that have dominated the category. The book’s interdisciplinary approach within a musical context, and beautiful full-color illustrations, will attract not only specialists in musicology, liturgy, and late medieval studies, but also those more broadly interested in the history of the book, memory, performance studies, and art history.
Download or read book The Immaculate Heart of Mary written by John Peter Pinamonti and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2004 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book that is a faithful reproduction of the classical "Considerations" of Father Pinamonti (1632-1703) on those interior perfections of the Blessed Virgin Mary which make her worthy of the esteem and love of Christians. The original Italian work was published over three centuries ago, and has remained a favorite book of devotion. Taking up one by one the dispositions wrought by the grace of God in the soul of the Mother of the Divine Son, it thus covers the ground of solid Christian teaching which underlies all true devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. With Father Pinamonti's crystal clearness of thought and expression, and revelations and teachings from over forty Fathers, Doctors, ecclesiastical writers and mystics of the church, including St. Anselm, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Bridget of Sweden, St. Augustine, and St. Catherine of Sienna, this spirit-filled book is perfect for the simple soul who wants to achieve a better understanding of the essentials of Christian piety. Imprimatur.

Download or read book The Immaculate Heart of Mary written by Fr John Peter Pinamonte and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author accurately divided his book into seven "Considerations," one for each day of the week; and to these were added suitable prayers and other exercises of devotion, with copious examples from the lives of the Saints. In this edition, the latter have been omitted altogether, as being beyond the scope here intended; an equivalent, better adapted to present use, may easily be had in approved manuals of devotion. The former have been simply turned into as many chapters. The wide reading of Father Pinamonti in the spiritual writers of every age of the Church enabled him to quote freely from their pages, to which for the most part he was careful to refer. It was thought that the multitude of these references would hinder rather than help the special utility aimed at in the present edition, which has no controversial end in view. Moreover, the historical defence of Catholic devotion to the Blessed Virgin long since received its final treatment, and is clearly stated in the Common works of controversy. A purpose of edification nlay undoubtedly be served by setting forth in a single list the names of Fathers and Doctors and great masters of the spiritual life who, in the different centuries of the Church's history, have instructed the Christian people in so fundamental a devotion. Such a list has accordingly been added, at the end of the volume, to the summary of Scripture texts here applied to the Blessed Virgin Mary. This may help to strengthen in the heart of the thoughtful reader that sense of solidarity with Christ's disciples of every time, and with the dutiful Heart of the Divine Son Himself, in the esteelll and love of the ever Blessed Mother of God. It was thus the Holy Ghost inspired her to prophesy of herself (St. Luke, i. 48): For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Straightforward answers about Roman Catholicism for a Protestant audience The Roman Catholic faith is one of the world's most widespread religious traditions, yet the unique aspects of Roman Catholicism elicit perennial questions from adherents and outsiders alike. Such questions tend to fall into three major categories: historical backgrounds, theological matters, and personal relationships. Using Catholic Church documents and the writings of Catholic scholars, Baptist systematic theologian Gregg R. Allison distills the teachings of Catholicism around forty common questions about Catholic foundations, beliefs, and practices. The accessible question-and-answer format guides readers to the areas of interest, including: Where do Roman Catholic and Protestant beliefs differ? What happens during a Roman Catholic Mass? How does Roman Catholicism understand the biblical teaching about Mary? Who are the saints and what is their role? How can my Roman Catholic loved ones and I talk about the gospel? 40 Questions About Roman Catholicism explores theology and practice, doctrine and liturgy, sacraments and Mariology, contributions and scandals, and many other things, clarifying both real and perceived differences and similarities with other Christian traditions.
