God has called Mary to be His womb and to play an indispensable part in the life of the Church; because she consented to do this, as Father Maloney shows in this vivid and powerful examination of Christian belief and tradition, we Christians are also able to be similar "wombs" of God. Father Maloney, one of America's leading theolo- gians, draws upon the Bible and the inspiration of early Church Fathers as well as modern psychologists and contemporary theologians to paint a picture of Mary as a "primeval archetypal figure" whose life foreshad- ows the role of every Christian to be "wombs of God," to be "containers that contain the uncontainable." This book is a rediscovery of true devotion to Mary not as a speculative doctrine, but as an experience of what Father Maloney calls "Mary-Church" through which we can become open to God as Mary was and in touch with our destiny as Christians. 232.91 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 232.91 Mal m E10002872 Non Fiction 232.91 Mal m 1.jpg 36991 2014-11-27 11:54:25 2024-09-17 16:18:53 machine generated
