Mary for All Christians

As a recent member of the Ecumenical Society of the Blessed Virgin Mary, I figured that this book was a must read but feared that it would tend to a "lowest common denominator" view of Mary. Nothing could be further from the truth. Macquarrie does not shy away from contraversy, but he also manages to show the Immaculate Conception and the Glorious Assumption in an entirely new light, convincing us that they are fully Christian mysteries with implications for the Church, all of humanity, and even the entire cosmos. The book ends with a beautiful Ecumenical Office of Mary the Mother of Jesus. HIGHLY recommended.
