St. Bridget of Sweden, whilst still in her girlhood, was seized in ecstasy with a vision of her Blessed Saviour hanging upon the wood of the cross. This was the first of thousands of visions and dialogues between our saint and the heavenly court. This volume, for the first time, brings before the reader the most profound and insightful experiences of this medieval mystic and collates them according to the mysteries of the rosary.
For each bead of the rosary, you will find a choicely selected point of meditation to ponder over, and an opportunity to join St. Bridget of Sweden as she illuminates the familiar scenes of the mysteries with details unrecorded in the Sacred Scriptures.
As in the previously edited volumes in this series, in addition to the Fifteen traditional mysteries, meditations are also included for Pope John Paul II’s Mysteries of Light, as well as the Hopeful Mysteries; which feature the central events of the plan of redemption prior to the Annunciation.
Those wishing to establish a deeper source of contemplative material for the daily rosary will find this book, and St. Bridget of Sweden, their ideal companion on the road to True Devotion.
