Women Before God
by Angelo Comastri
Cardinal Comastri has always highlighted, in his books, female figures who respond to the Gospel message in unique and profound ways. Naturally, the figure of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, is central to his reflections, as is Mother Teresa, whom he knew personally. However, he also explores the lives of many other women who, in his narration, embody important and meaningful models of discipleship at various levels—such as Bernadette of Lourdes, Lucia of Fatima, and Benedetta Bianchi Porro.
This volume is divided into two parts: the first focuses on the Virgin Mary and her journey as the Mother of God; the second invites readers to rediscover Mother Teresa and the vital role of prayer in her life, which served as the driving force behind her work of charity.
