About the Author

There have been many books written about the Blessed Virgin Mary, most with the aim of setting the record straight. While all Christians recognize Mary as the mother of Christ, many do not recognize her role in our salvation history and accuse those who honor her of “worshipping” Mary. This book, Our Mother Who Art in Heaven, is not an apologia on the doctrine of Mary but a reflection on her activities, as described in the Bible, and her messages during her apparitions on earth. It invites the reader to reflect more on Mary’s role, as it is presented in scripture, which some people seem to ignore.
