Before she was the Mother of Christ, she was a girl from Nazareth who said yes.
In this tender Catholic novel, Ana Brigida Gomez brings the Blessed Virgin Mary to life as a woman who is holy yet shaken and always faithful to her “yes” to God.
From her girlhood in Nazareth and her close friendship with the troubled Bethany, through her marriage to Joseph and the raising of their son, we follow Mary through all the joys and sorrows that culminate in the pain of the Crucifixion, the hope of the Resurrection, and what came beyond.
Grounded in years of historical research and touched with moments of quiet mysticism, Mary: Maiden, Mother, Matriarch offers an intimate portrait of the Maiden of Nazareth who became the mother of Christ.
