Ladies, I cannot believe this is our last chapter!! What a gift this book has been! I received the responses from the interview with Colleen and I'm SO excited to share them with you! She is so beautifully authentic and sincere. Stay tuned for that! We'll also have a final discussion on the book, so it's not over yet. But for now, the questions for this week...ponder them, journal them, share them with us.
Chapter 6: Triumph of the Cross
Colleen writes about how her esteem for Mary grew gradually, and the more she turned to Mary, the more she felt drawn to loving, serving and imitating her Son, Jesus. In what ways has devotion to Mary led you closer to Christ? In what ways has following Mary’s example helped you grow in virtue? Colleen’s yearning for motherhood was her own cross to carry, but it also made her dependence on God that much stronger. What trials are you most thankful for? How have they deepened your faith? After having read of Colleen’s closeness to six saints, which saints would you like to learn more about, both in reading works and through prayer?
Catching up or looking back? Here are the rest of the weeks' links:
