    The most recent episode of The Chosen (Season Two, Episode 6, "Unlawful") does an incredible job of depicting the Blessed Virgin Mary's role in the Christian life. Find out why in this week's episode. To consecrate yourself to Jesus through Mary, I recommend the following consecrations: 1. For a first-time individual: "33 Days to Morning Glory" by Fr. Michael E. Gaitley, MIC https://www.ignatius.com/33-Days-to-Morning-Glory-P2410.aspx 2. For a group consecration: "Mary's Mantle Consecration: A Spiritual Retreat for Heaven's Help" by Christine Watkins https://queenofpeacemedia.com/marys-mantle/ 3. For a returning individual: "True Devotion to Mary" by St. Louis de Montfort https://tanbooks.com/tan-classics/true-devotion-to-mary-with-preparation-for-total-consecration/ These consecrations are listed in the formats that I utilized, though any of them can be used on an individual or group basis at any time.

    Ferris Bueller once wisely said, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." While that shouldn't encourage us to do things like skip school (though that is a great movie), it's true that life moves pretty fast - sometimes so much so that it seems like more than we can handle. However, we are not alone in this feeling. The Blessed Mother experienced this in a profound way when the angel Gabriel appeared to her and announced that she was to be the Mother of God. Although she was greatly troubled by this and could not comprehend everything this task would entail, Mary didn't let fear have the final say; instead, she said yes to God's plan and took the next step "with haste" (Lk 1:39 RSV). Where is the Lord asking you to go with haste today?
