When Mary has appeared anywhere in the world, the locations of her apparitions have points in common with the biblical places where she stayed and lived. This book reviews these places, examining what they reveal to us about Mary's identity and what the inner spaces are that Mary asks us to dwell in today. This book also explores the unique relationship Saint Catherine Labouré and Saint Bernadette each had with Mary, leading us toward a new, deep revelation of Mary's closeness to each of us.
In preparation for the Ordinary Jubilee of 2025, the Exploring Prayer series delves into various dimensions of prayer in the Christian life. These brief, accessible books can help you learn to dialogue with God and rediscover the beauty of trusting in the Lord with humility and joy.

Praying with Saints and Sinners (Exploring Prayer)
The saints whose writings on prayer and meditation are explored in this book are among the most celebrated in the great spiritual tradition. The aim of this book is to discover what help the great saints can offer those of us who desire to make progress in the life of prayer but who find ourselves being constantly deflected from our purpose, our tentative efforts undermined perhaps most of all by human weakness.

The Prayer of Jesus (Exploring Prayer)
The Prayer of Jesus explores the unique experience of the fatherhood of God, whom Jesus calls Abba — which in his native Aramaic language means "Dad." Throughout his earthly life, Jesus is in constant dialogue with Abba. From his Baptism in the Jordan through his public ministry and ultimately his crucifixion, this relationship will mark him forever, transforming his life and our lives, too.

Praying with the Psalms (Exploring Prayer)
The Psalter is the quintessential book of the Bible, meant for prayerful pause and contemplative silence. This little guide to the Psalms is divided into four sections: a general reflection on prayer; the breath of the soul, a panoramic look at the texts of the psalms; a portrait of the two protagonists, God and the worshiper, but also of the intrusion of the presence of evil; an anthology of brief commentaries on the psalms most dear to tradition and the liturgy.

The Prayer Jesus Taught Us: The "Our Father" (Exploring Prayer)
The Our Father was taught by Christ to his Apostles and took shape in the experience of the early Church, and it has been seen as the synthesis of the whole gospel. The Prayer Jesus Taught Us identifies the theological-biblical structure underlying the Lord's Prayer and situates it in the living environment of the early Church. This book examines the antecedents in Mark, the systematic presentation of Matthew, Paul's push forward, the accentuation of Luke, and the mature synthesis found in John.
