Virgin, Mother, Queen

Encountering Mary in Time and Tradition

By: Robert L. Fastiggi,Michael O'Neill

Winner of a 2020 Catholic Press Association book award (second place, theology-morality, ethics, Christology, Mariology, and redemption). The earliest of Mary’s apparitions can be traced back to the first century of the Church and have continued into modern times, inspiring the faithful to devotion to her and to a deeper love of Christ her son. In Virgin, Mother, Queen, popular radio and television host Michael O’Neill gathers fascinating details from Mary’s mystical appearances around the world. Robert Fastiggi, professor of systemic theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, answers questions about the historical and theological development of Marian teachings throughout Church history. The ten, Church-sanctioned apparitions and their corresponding titles of Mary are: Virgin: Our Lady of Guadalupe (Mexico, 1531) Mediatrix of Grace: Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal (Rue du Bac, France, 1830) Mother of Sorrows: Our Lady of La Salette (France, 1846) Immaculate, All-Holy: Our Lady of Lourdes (France, 1858) Advocate: Our Lady of Hope (Pontmain, France, 1871) Blessed: The Knock Apparition (Ireland, 1879) Mother of the Church: Our Lady of the Rosary (Fatima, Portugal, 1917) Queen of Heaven: The Virgin of the Golden Heart/Our Lady of Beuraing (Belgium, 1932) Mother of Mercy: Virgin of the Poor/Our Lady of Banneaux (Belgium, 1933) Mother of God: Our Lady of Sorrows/Our Lady of Kibeho (Rwanda, 1981) Virgin, Mother, Queen includes full-color illustrations and recounts in story and teaching why the apparitions and titles of Mary continue to be relevant today.

Catholic Sexual Morality

By: Robert L. Fastiggi

Many people today believe that the traditional Catholic view of sex is antiquated, unrealistic, and potentially harmful. In Catholic Sexual Morality, Dr. Robert Fastiggi asks whether the permissive sexual attitude of today's culture is really contributing to deeper love, better relationships, and true happiness for men, women, children, and families. He begins with the example of St. Augustine who recognized he was a slave to lust and in need of true freedom. Fastiggi then examines the foundations for Catholic sexual morality in Scripture, reason, and human experience. The hope is that people will realize that the Catholic Church is not "against sex" but sees sexual intimacy as something so beautiful and life-giving that it requires the stability of marriage for its true and rightful expression. Catholic Sexual Morality is grounded in the belief that the church's teachings on sex correspond to God's plan for human happiness. These teachings are challenging, and the church understands how easy it is to fail in sexual matters. God's mercy, however, is more powerful than human weakness and sin. This book explains the reasons why the Catholic Church teaches as she does on matters such as pornography, masturbation, fornication, adultery, contraception, divorce, and homosexual acts. It presents these teachings in a realistic way with full recognition of the reasons why people reject them. The ultimate desire is to help people understand that Catholic sexual morality is not a creation of church leaders but a response to what God has made known to us in Sacred Scripture and the natural law. In a world filled with infidelity, divorce, wounded children, and broken hearts, the wisdom of traditional Catholic sexual morality deserves a more sympathetic view--not just because it is Catholic but because it is true.
