About this listen
Divided into thirty-one chapters, one for each day of the month, the author breaks open the Gospels, particularly Matthew and Luke. As a biblical exegete, Fr. Amorth carefully analyzes the narratives of the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Nativity of Christ, the visit of the Shepherds and Magi, the Presentation in the Temple, the Flight into Egypt, and the return of the Holy Family to Nazareth. From here, Mary lives in "silence" and "hiddenness," where she “kept all these things in her heart”; that is, her knowledge of what is coming – the "Hour," revealed at the Wedding in Cana, when she will witness the death of Christ on the cross and receive her role as Mother of all. But she is also the only one who knew what was coming after Good Friday, the only one of Christ’s followers who had hope on Good Saturday.
In addition to the Scriptures, Fr. Amorth explores ancient Marian titles and designations such as the New Eve, Ever-Virgin, the Mother of God, God-bearer (Theotokos), and All Holy. He explains the relatively recent Marian dogmas (with ancient roots) of the Immaculate Conception and Assumption. He also looks at popular devotions, such as keeping Holy Saturdays, Marian apparitions, the Rosary, and even what it means to be consecrated to her.
Intended to be catechetical, a series of reflections follows each chapter. Written in simple and clear language, the book is spiritually and theologically rich. Though the focus is on Mary, Fr. Amorth frequently reminds the reader that devotion to the Mother is to better know the Son. Published originally in Italian as Il Vangelo di Maria (The Gospel of Mary), this book is Fr. Amorth at his best.
About the author:
Fr. Gabriele Amorth was born in Modena, Italy, on May 1, 1925. He was ordained a Catholic priest in 1954 as a member of the Society of St. Paul, the congregation founded by Giacomo Alberione in 1914. He worked for thirty years as a journalist and editor for the Italian magazine Familia Cristiana and for the monthly Madre di Dio, for which he wrote numerous Marian articles. After working as a journalist, he was appointed an exorcist of the Diocese of Rome in June 1986, under the tutelage of Candido Amantini. In 1990, along with five other priests, he founded the International Association of Exorcists and was president until his retirement in 2000. Over the course of his career, Father Amorth is believed to have performed over 60,000 exorcisms. His work in demonology and exorcism, combined with his experience in media, gained him international recognition. As such, he became one of the most prominent figures in the Catholic Church in the modern era.

Fr. Gabriele Amorth is considered one of the most important figures in the Italian Catholic Church. Not only was he a renowned exorcist, he was a journalist, a noted theologian, and biblical exegete. The recent Hollywood film about his life (though highly embellished) has only added to his mystique. Behind the man was a powerful faith. He could not have performed exorcisms for thirty years without supernatural aid. Toward the end of his life, while retired in a rest home in Rome, he revealed his secret: the Rosary. For years, he had an unpublished book that he kept in a drawer of his cell ...

As we all know, and as many of our well-established textbooks have argued for decades, the Inquisition was one of the most frightening and bloody chapters in Western history, Pope Pius XII was anti-Semitic and rightfully called "Hitler's Pope", the Dark Ages were a stunting of the progress of knowledge to be redeemed only by the secular spirit of the Enlightenment, and the religious Crusades were an early example of the rapacious Western thirst for riches and power. But what if these long-held beliefs were all wrong?

The Diary is an amazing narrative that chronicles the experiences of a simple, uneducated Polish nun who received a special call shortly before the outbreak of World War II. Our Lord appeared to her and instructed her to spread the message of his Divine Mercy to all, especially in our current age, which is full of so much distress and worldliness. The message of the Divine Mercy is that God loves us all of us. And He wants us to recognize that his mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon him with trust, receive his mercy, and let it flow through us to others.

A Poor Clare nun, she was a stigmatic who offered her many mystical sufferings for others.

In 2007, Joseph Ratzinger published his first book as Pope Benedict XVI in order “to make known the figure and message of Jesus”. Now, the Pope focuses exclusively on the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ life as a child. The root of these stories is the experience of hope found in the birth of Jesus and the affirmations of surrender and service embodied in his parents, Joseph and Mary.
