Beloved Disciple

by Fr. Josemaria M. Barbin

This is not another booklet on preparation for consecration to Mary. There are plenty of those out there. The purpose of this booklet is to try to answer the crucial I’ve made my act of consecration to Mary—now what? Lack of progress in consecration to Mary is not necessarily because of lack of desire, but of lack of guidance on how to live it out. Now what? This booklet discusses three powerful practices you can concretely implement in your daily life to help take your relationship with the Blessed Mother to the next from act of consecration to life of union with Mary.

My introduction to Fr. Josemaria M. Barbin was a lovely episode of Pints with Aquinas wherein he blew my mind explaining how The Blessed Virgin Mary is the Quasi-Incarnation of the Holy Spirit. Or more simply, how they, she and The Holy Spirit, as spouses, are so linked up because she is the Created Immaculate Conception and The Holy Spirit is the Uncreated Immaculate Conception, being the love between The Father and The Son. Like I said, mind blowing.

Being a Franciscan and a Marian Scholar in the Tradition of Marian Scholar and Martyr, St. Maximilian Kolbe, Fr. Josemaria has great insights on living out our practical Marian Devotion and Total Concecration.
