How does Mary, the Mother of God, speak to the modern female experience? Learn how Mary inspires today’s women. In Mary and Me you will discover: an eating disorder activist who describes how Mary helped her overcome her struggles with anorexia; an attorney who reveals how a trip to the Holy Land inspired her to see Mary not as a passive figure but as a tough and resilient woman; a religious sister who shares how the Visitation inspires her work with recovering drug addicts and prostitutes; and a music teacher and mother who explains her difficulty in relating to Mary’s perfection, but also shares how she treasures Mary as a personal friend and ally. Woven with commentary and scripture references, Mary and Me offers a fresh, compelling look at the depth and breadth of Mary’s influence on women today.
Mary and Me
Catholic Women Reflect on the Mother of God
Ginny Kubitz Moyer
“A page-turner as warm and touching as a cup of hot apple cider in the winter. Mary and Me connects readers not only with real-life stories of modern women but also with the Mary intimately working in their lives. An engaging alternative to trite and saccharine images of Mary.” —Mike Hayes, co-founder and managing editor, BustedHalo.com

“Moyer takes us on a journey of the heart. We are invited to reflect on our own experience of Mary—the woman with a thousand faces and a thousand titles—whose influence is at once universal and deeply personal.” —Denise Roy, author, My Monastery Is a Minivan
