Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Book Group


Here at Nativity we are blessed to have two different book groups. See below for previous books. The purpose of the group is not only to read, learn and discuss, but also to share our faith and our own journeys to God. They are a very relaxed environment that encourage open and respectful discussion. If you are interested in joining us, see the schedule below and give us a call, email us, or fill out the form below.

Angels and Saints: A Biblical Guide to Friendship with God's Holy Ones

In this book we take a look at how angels and saints inspire and guide us to heaven.


From the book jacket:


Angels and saints. Catholics ten to think of them as different fromt he rest of us. They're cast in plaster or simpering on a holy card, performing miracles with superhero strength, or playing a harp in highest heaven.


Yet they are very near to us in every way. In this lively book, Scott Hahn dispels the false notins and distance. The truth is that Jesus Christ has united heave and earth in a close communion. Drawing deeply fromScripture, Dr. Hahn shows that the hosts of heaven surround the earthly Church as a "great cloud of witnesses." The martyrs cry out from heaven's altar begging for justice on the earth. They prayers of the saints and angels rise to God, in the Book of Revelation, like the sweet aroma of incense.
