The Mystical City of God, Venerable Mary of Agreda
I am a Catholic wife and mother, reading this work to all my children every night at bedtime.

Learn about Our Lady
Venerable Mary of Agreda was a Spanish nun and mystic who lived in the 17th century (1602-1665). She received revelations from Our Lady concerning many unknown graces of her life.
Each chapter contains descriptions of the graces of the interior life of Our Lady, and and instruction given by Our Lady herself to Venerable Mary of Agreda, her spiritual daughter, on how to imitate her virtues more perfectly.
This is a home recording of a mother reading to her children at bedtime. It is being done with permission from the translator, using the New English Edition published recently by Timothy A. Duff, available for sale on www.neemcog.com.
This work, it has been argued, is perhaps the greatest Scripture commentary ever written. It produces Divine Faith in the soul. Whoever reads or listens to it with openness of heart and not skepticism will be certain to perceive the supernatural realities which are communicated in it, and to grow spiritually in imitation of the virtues of the Blessed Virgin Mary, knowing her thoughts and her ways.
