Mary and the Christian Family (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781470053260)

How Holy Catholic Families Are Made

Imagine if you and the members of your family lived the Marian devotion which St. Louis de Montfort taught, and eventually experienced what St. Louis promises...

"Do not think, dear soul, that Mary, the most fruitful of all pure creatures, who has brought forth even a God, remains idle in a faithful soul. She will cause Jesus Christ to live in that soul, and the soul to live in constant union with Jesus Christ" ("The Secret of Mary", #56).

Living in constant union with Jesus is the entire purpose of the Christian life, and the essence of holiness.

Now, the reason why St. Louis could make such a remarkable promise, is because God revealed this secret devotion to him. He wrote...

"Predestinate soul, here is a secret the Most High has taught me, which I have not been able to find in any book, old or new. I confide it to you, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" (Secret, #1).

And he insists this devotion helps you achieve union with Jesus faster and easier than you ever thought possible...

"By this practice, faithfully observed, you will give Jesus more glory in a month than by any other practice, however difficult, in many years" (True Devotion, #222).

And he assures you...

"The third good which Our Lady does to her servants is that she conducts and directs them according to the will of her Son. She shows them the paths of eternal life. There where the guidance of Mary is, neither the evil spirit with his illusions, nor the heretics with their subtleties, can ever come" (True Devotion, #209).

That's the reason why he says...

"We must draw all the world, if we can, to her service and to this true and solid devotion" (True Devotion, #265).

St. Maximilian Kolbe says that he, St. Louis de Montfort, and Fr. Neubert were all on the same page.

He told his fellow Franciscans, "The devotion taught by Blessed Grignion (St. Louis) is ours exactly."

And he was so impressed with Fr. Neubert's books, that he also told them about Fr. Neubert, "He has the exact same spirit as we have."

St. Maximilian also said...

"We must realize the goal of the Militia of the Immaculate, as quickly as possible: that is, to conquer the whole world, and every individual soul which exists today or will exist until the end of the world, for the Immaculata, and through her for the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus."

The reason why he appealed to us to act with a sense of urgency is because he also warned...

"Modern times are dominated by Satan and will be more so in the future. The conflict with hell cannot be engaged by men, even the most clever. The lmmaculata alone has from God the promise of victory over Satan. However, assumed into heaven, the Mother of God now requires our cooperation. She seeks souls who will consecrate themselves entirely to Her, who will become in Her hands effective instruments for the defeat of Satan and the spreading of God's Kingdom upon earth."

The reason why St. Maximilian called on us to act with a sense of urgency is because he knew the devil never bides his time.

The good news is St. Louis insists this Marian devotion is "more glorious to God, more sanctifying to the soul, and more useful to the neighbor, than any other of the devotions to her" (True Devotion, #118).

And...

"For where Mary is the devil has never had and never will have access" (Secret, #17).

And so, today consecration to Mary is more vital than ever. Now there is more need than ever before for all of us to practice our devotion to Mary better, specifically, consecration to her.

This book shows Catholic families how to use this devotion to live in union with Mary.

And so, since St. Maximilian gave Fr. Neubert's books his seal of approval, and encouraged everyone to read them, I urge you to send for your copy of this book today.
