In Mary, Woman and Mother Fr. Francis Moloney studies the New Testament's presentation of Mary's person and role. After indicating the limits and strengths of a biblical study of Mary, he examines the Marian texts from the Letter of Paul to the Galatians, the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Gospel of John. She is above all a women and a mother. This book shows that in recognizing Mary as God's place of encounter with all that is most beautiful among women and men, we will gain access to the womanly, maternal face of God.

How does the Catholic community understand and commit to the mission of Jesus today? What might missional discipleship look like "on the ground"? Mission in Practice addresses these questions. It assists educators to enhance vision and commitment through reflection on their current practice. It also provides an introduction to the scriptural foundations of mission and to normative Catholic teaching. As did Jesus in his time and place, this Educator's Guide contains an invitation to renew vision and hope, and to enter deeply into the grand adventure of missional discipleship in today's world.
