More DescriptionChrist: Mother Mary's Gift of Light is an imaginative telling of Jesus' life as a child with his mother Mary. The stories are inspired by the idea that the angel Gabriel watched over Mary and guided her in her choices as a parent. Incorporating Bible stories, historical fiction, and both traditional and innovative concepts of the holy family, it is written for the adult reader, and appropriate for ages ten and up. The authors are Singh Modi, world-renowned teacher and healer, and writer Elizabeth Temple: Our book attempts to celebrate Mary's place in Christianity, in world spirituality, and to honor her as the greatest loving and inspiring woman in human history. We believe that Mary was Jesus' first disciple, a wise and courageous woman who followed the voice of God. She is an example for all parents, as she reminds us of the far-reaching impact of a mother's loving care and compassion in raising her children from conception to adolescence. Chapter One, The Temple of Mary and Jesus, shows Mary's healthy choices educating Jesus while still in the womb. Mary Makes a Joyful Home shows Jesus from birth to age three, nurtured, protected, and cherished by his family. Mary Guides His Learning shows Jesus from age three to six, and Mary's encouragement to learn, play, and explore his community. Mary Receives His Mission shows Jesus from age seven to nine, revealing to Mary his mission to bring love to the world. Mary Prepares Him for His Father shows Jesus from age ten through twelve, supported by Mary to share his message of love.
