5.0 out of 5 stars A balanced, loving history of devotion to Mary, July 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Images of Mary (Paperback)
As a convert from Protestantism, I have struggled with the place of the Blessed Virgin Mary in my personal spirituality as well as my defense of the Faith. Father McBride's Images of Mary has been a turning point for me. He has treated the reader as a thinking adult and as a pilgrim. His synthesis of personal devotion with the writings of the Church Fathers, Church Councils, and contemporary writers has resolved many objective and subjective dilemmas for me. I have given the book to many friends. My wife and teenage children are studying it with me. I am particularly thankful for his tender use of iconography as way of catechizing from the heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars All Things New, January 7, 2006

This review is from: Images of Mary (Paperback)
Father McBride provides an inspiring and mentally stimulating look at Our Blessed Mother. In a conversational style that sometimes includes addressing the reader, he introduces fascinating historical information about the controversies surrounding the development of her various roles in the church. However, he goes beyond this, sharing poignant reflections that bring Mary to life and invite the reader into a deeper appreciation of the woman, her choice, and the spiritual ramifications for all of us.

Although "Images of Mary" could be read quickly, it's worth reading slowly and savoring.
