Download or read book Travels With Mary Mary and Me written by V. L. French and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travels With Mary…Mary and Me By: V. L. French Two very young women, barely out of their teens with three daughters each, divorced, never having enough money, partaking of food stamps, living in the slums of suburban Pittsburgh: what could possibly go wrong? Find out in this uplifting, funny, and at times, frightening, tale about two young women very determined to survive and succeed. This book is, for the most part, many funny stories lovingly stitched together to make a warm quilt of laughter with only a few tears and fears. It is an attempt to tell the tale of two very young women trying to make their lives and the lives of their six daughters better while living in cruel poverty. Their wits helped to pull them through. Their sense of humor helped to sustain them. It tells the reason why they were forced into this life of coping with food stamps, less than adequate vehicles, and never enough money in their struggle to survive and succeed. But it has many moments of hilarity too. The hope is that this book will illustrate that one never has to settle for what may seem like an unfortunate destiny. You needn’t be stuck in a seemingly hopeless situation if you are determined to change that path and make your life better. The story continues with how their paths go in very different directions later.

Download or read book Walking with Mary written by Edward Sri and published by Image. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.”
