Mary's Story: The Beauty of the Lonely Heart

-- The Untold Revelation in Her Own Words --While sitting alone in the house of Mary, Mother of Jesus, in Ephesus, Turkey, Nancy Rhodes had an overpowering spiritual experience. Images of Mary’s life flashed rapidly through her mind, and she was overwhelmed with emotion. Her heart opened to Mary's words. She spoke to Nancy. “Tell my story.”Over the following decade Nancy continued to receive her words. Mary revealed the untold story of her life, the obstacles and turning points she faced: a lonely childhood where nature was often her only solace; a horrible beating by her father; Joseph’s devotion preventing her from certain death and later, when their village was torched by the Roman soldiers, it was Joseph’s quick-thinking courage that saved Mary and the children.In sharing her story, Mary today speaks to people who are facing loneliness, fear, and loss. She tenderly assures us of the healing light of love. WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:“An engrossing journey of illumination. Once I began reading Mary’s Story, I couldn’t put it down.
