Mystical City of God: A Popular Abridgement (Mystical City of God)The testament in this book about the life of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, contains vivid images that will leave you spell-bound. The crucifiction scene from Mel Gibson's Passion of Christ was based on the imagery in this book. You will read and re-read this book many times...

 The Life of Mary and Jesus April 1, 2007

Despite Mary relating her experiences to the author, Mary of Agreda, you can't help but feel that Mary is speaking directly to you. It is a touching story of humility and sanctity. You can look at it as filling in the spaces that the Gospels have left out. All of it is very believable. br /Eah chapter, and they are short, ends with words from Mary to the author, instructing her in the ways to increase her love of God and Mary and how to imitate their lives. Because of the great number of pages, you won't read it in a day, and in a way, that's good. The short chapters let you read a little at a time and let you set it aside to contemplate what Mary has said. You will come away with a new understanding of Mary and Jesus.

This is a truly beautiful book, providing background details on the life of the Holy Virgin Mary and the creation of the universe. The most amazing part about this book is that the details make so much sense and are so logical, yet are so intricate and colorful, that it is impossible to think of it as a work of fiction by a devout nun. I have not yet completed the book, but when you read enough of City of God and contemplate its beauty, you will find that it is in every single way supportive of Christian doctrine, and in every single way a masterpiece that was Divinely inspired. A worthy read indeed.
