The Church is journeying towards the fullness of the Kingdom of God which was the focus of the teaching and ministry of Jesus. It is then appropriate that Mary, the Mother of Jesus, should be seen in the context of the Kingdom of God. Basing himself on scripture, tradition and theology, the author reflects on Mary as a prototype of Christian existence and shows how she can be integrated into the thoughts and beliefs of Christians today. The book also addresses itself to questions like the following: How do we explain dogmatic statements on Mary today? What is Mary's place in history? How are we to under-stand Mary's mediation? What is Mary's relationship to the Church? The answers, elaborated within these pages, are based on the fact that Mary was a person-age of confluences in the history of our salvation. The great moments were interconnected in her: the transition from the Old to the New Testament, the coming of Christ, the birth of the Church. She is the great sign that appeared in heaven and she continues to be our guide and comfort in this vale of tears.
