Blessed Columba Marmion and His Understanding of the Role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Life of a Roman Catholic Priest: an Aid to Developing a Spirituality for Diocesan Priests in Parochial Ministry
Blessed Columba Marmion was abbot of Maredsous Benedictine Abbey in Belgium from 1909 until 1923. His conferences given to clergy and religious consist of solid and practical spiritual advice that is timelier than ever. This book is a successfully defended doctoral thesis that focuses on Marmions understanding of the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the life of a diocesan priest. The ultimate purpose of such a thesis is to provide an aid to developing a spirituality for clergy in parochial ministry. Included in this book is a concise background of Marmions life, an appendix of many quotations taken directly from his conferences that can serve as material for meditation and finally a proposed spiritual process that can assist the reader in developing a closer relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ by reflecting upon the life and role of the Blessed Mother. Although the targeted audience is Roman Catholic clergy, any person may benefit from the meditations by adapting the process to his or her own state in life.

Affirmation and Healing Within Spiritual Direction
ABSTRACT Key to the process of spiritual growth is the knowledge that human beings long for love. They desire to know their worth and value.
