Are Catholics given a bad rap when it comes to their knowledge of the Bible? We may not carry Bibles clutched in our hands, but years of repetition and discipline allow us to store our Bible in our own thoughts, memorized prayers, and beautiful traditions. With hesitation we may join a Bible Study, reluctantly opening the door marked "unfamiliar," but upon entering we will indeed find ourselves among the "familiar." Studying the Bible in its context helps us place our memorized stories into the timeline of Christ and explores the numerous New Testament verses that were revealed through Old Testament prophecies. The Seven Sorrows of Mary is a daily prayer that was handed down to us from Saint Bridget. Using these sorrows as our template, we find them in the New Testament writings and then trace them to Old Testament prophecies and accountings. You will be amazed at what Mary teaches us as we delve into the Word of God to uncover the clues to her mysterious sorrows. On the surface, Mary's sorrows may seem like an exercise in remembering our Lord's sacrifice, but Mary teaches us so much more through her perfect humility and unwavering faith. Our study will reveal the history and purpose of the sorrows and how we can use these teachings to aid in our daily struggles, more deeply root our position with Christ, and enhance our own Catholic tradition.
Beth Leonard is a cradle Catholic who has studied, and fallen in love with, the books of the Bible. The more she studied the historic writings, the stronger her bond became to the Roman Catholic Church and its teachings. She found a new energy and beauty in the beloved Mass and a deepened respect for the wisdom and prudence of those who first established the Catholic doctrine and for those who are responsible for its vitality today. While praying The Seven Sorrows of Mary, a daily meditation handed down by Saint Bridget, Beth began an initial thirst for more knowledge and a desire to understand, in full context, the mysteries they hold. Locating each sorrow in New Testament scripture left her with even more questions to consider and research. New Testament footnotes led to Old Testament verses and so the search began - back and forth across the books of the Bible to gain as much insight and history as she could find. What was especially heartwarming was the number of times it led her directly back to her Catholic traditions, to the Liturgy of the Word, and to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. She began documenting her findings and then wrote them into a discovery study for other Catholics to explore and experience. Beth lives with her husband, Bill, and two daughters, Sarah and Moira. They reside in Carmel, Indiana.
