The Radiance of Her Face: A Triptych in Honor of Mary Immaculate

These meditations on the Immaculate Conception will teach you to look at and love Our Lady as God sees and loves her. "The longing to gaze upon the Immaculate Virgin,"writes Dom Xavier Perrin, "is not a matter of superficial devotion ... but rather a genuine requirement of Christian contemplation." In this book, he shows us the necessity of Mary in the life of every Christian. Alive to the role of material beauty in strengthening our perception of the invisible, Dom Perrin uses the visual language of the "Triptych" to assist us in our understanding of Mary's role in the divine plan. Those who already rejoice in fervent devotion to Mary will find their love for her here nourished, stirred, refreshed, confirmed, given new impetus. For those who have lacked the confidence to turn to Mary, who feel they do not really understand how we can pray to her, or relate to her, these pages may prove truly liberating, inviting entry into a prayer life that is deeper, more confident, and more effective. A contemplative gaze at Mary Immaculate has the power to change us, to convert us, to soften our hard hearts, to open us up to the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. Here then is a book to be savored, to be read slowly and repeatedly, to be passed on to others. May it be a blessing for all who encounter it.
