PRODUCT INFORMATION
by: Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Lessons on Cana and Calvary
Analyzes the relation between the seven recorded words that Mary spoke in the Gospels and seven last words of her Son as He hung on the cross. Offers solace for the fears and dilemmas of today's Christian by interpreting the Gospel from the intertwined perspective of Mother and Son.
In his usual down-to-earth style, Archbishop Fulton Sheen compares each of Our Lord's seven words with Our Blessed Mother's chronologically corresponding words, reflecting, in turn on the value of ignorance, the secret of sanctity, confidence, the search for religious meaning, the purpose of life and more.
It is in no way coincidental that Jesus spoke only seven times on Calvary, and that his mother is recorded as speaking only seven times in the Gospels. As Bishop Sheen so eloquently says of Mary: "Now that the Sun was out, there was no longer need of the moon to shine. Now that the Word has spoken, there was no longer need of words."
96 pages. Paperback.
