She is the most recognizable woman in history.

No other woman has received so many tributes, signs of gratitude, and praises, or been the subject of so many paintings, songs, and sculptures.

Some of these depictions vary incredibly, to the point that they might seem to depict entirely different women.

Yet a single glance is enough to confirm that it is she.

The Madonna. The Virgin Mother.

Mary.

She has been a central figure in Catholicism since the early days of the Church and the subject of controversy in the modern day.

She performs wonders of healing through the waters of Lourdes and delivers victories in battle as on the waters of Lepanto.

Yet very little is known of her temporal life.

What are we to make of this woman who was unknown to history, a young peasant in a forgotten province of the mighty Roman Empire, the daughter of an exiled and oppressed people...

...who one day received a visit from an angel with news that changed the course of the human race?

Even devout Catholics and Christians with strong devotions to Mary know little of her earthly life.

The Bible itself reveals few details, and Mariology tends to focus on her theological and spiritual role.

Yet she lived a long life on earth, too. And that life provides beautiful context to her spiritual motherhood of the Church...and of you

That's why Grzegorz Górny and Janusz Rosikon devoted years of research, world-wide travel, and documentation to uncover this forgotten history.

And here are the fruits of their labor of love: Mary, Mother of God: In Search of the Woman Who Changed History

Mary, Mother of God book on wood surface

In these pages, you'll discover previously-untold facts about the life of Christ's Immaculate Mother, including:

Where she lived with her parents
What her childhood was like
Where the Holy Family went in their flight to Egypt
How devotion to her grew over the centuries
An incredibly detailed history of her depictions in art
...and much, much more!

So intertwined is Mary with the Church that this book is also a critical resource for the history of the Church itself.

This is a one-of-a-kind compendium of all things Marian, with new treasures to uncover on each page!

And now, we're pairing it with another more focused work by renowned author and apologist Brant Pitre: Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary: Unveiling the Mother of the Messiah.

Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary book on wood surface

In this insightful work, Dr. Pitre tackles the more confusing doctrines of Mariology and distills it into beautiful, impactful language that will inspire you to greater devotion to the Blessed Mother.

He illuminates questions such as:

Are Catholic teachings about Mary really Biblical?
Should Mary be called "Mother of God" or just "mother of Jesus"?
Did she actually remain a virgin for her entire life? If so, what about those "brothers of Jesus"
Do Catholics worship her?
...and more!

Drawing from Scripture and the ancient Jewish tradition, Dr. Pitre uncovers Mary's identity as the Queen of Heaven and Earth and Mediatrix of All Graces.

This book set is a priceless treasure trove of beauty and wonder, and it's on sale for a limited time!
