Table of ContentsReviewsIn this collection, Pope Francis highlights Mary's feminine genius and her receptivity to divine guidance--something to which believers of many religious tradition aspire--people of many faiths will find nourishment in the pope's words. Devotion to Mary, over the centuries, often stressed her uniqueness among other creatures. Pope Francis draws her close. Having shown the way through her courageous 'yes' to God, Mary serves as an intimate partner in our joys, hopes, and sorrows, a model of faith who inspires our own audacious response to God's invitation. -- Robert Ellsberg, author, Blessed Among Us A lifetime of deeply knowing and loving Mary, the Mother of God, has left a deep imprint on Pope Francis. In these beautiful meditations, homilies, talks and tweets, he speaks of her not as an idea but an intimate experience, whose strength transforms not just individuals but whole cultures. Mary models for Francis the missionary, merciful attitude every Christian is called to develop, of patient listening to the will of God, and courageous confidence in His designs. --Austen Ivereigh, senior contributor, Crux, and author, The Great Reformer: Francis and the Making of a Radical Pope Author InformationPope Francis, formerly Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, SJ, served the Jesuits as novice master, lecturer, provincial, confessor, and spiritual director before Pope John Paul II named him archbishop of Buenos Aires.
