Each year, the Church celebrates the Mysteries of Christ's birth, life, death and Resurrection. These are the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, and Easter - and each is the source of a particular grace, each has its own special gift for us. Christ in His Mysteries is Blessed Columba Marmion's great meditation on the treasure-house of grace Christ offers to us in the Church's liturgical year. In the clear inspiring language that made him a favourite of Popes and lay faithful alike he explains: How the Mysteries of Jesus are now our mysteries - springs of living water we are meant to drink from. How Christ's wisdom, His Holiness, His strength, are now our wisdom, our holiness, our strength. How to acquire special graces during each liturgical season. "Writings of deep insight and great value ... An authentic treasury of spiritual truth" Pope John Paul II "The works of Marmion are outstanding in the ... depth and richness of their thought." Pope Pius XII Born in Ireland, Blessed Columba Marmion served for several years as a priest in Dublin before finding a vocation to the monastery. He eventually became Abbot of Maredsous Abbey, Belgium. One of the foremost spiritual masters of the 20th century, his books were translated into eleven languages and sold some 1.5 million copies. Alan Bancroft's new translation is meticulously faithful to the French original.
