Today, we celebrate Mary's Coronation in Heaven. Discover Mary with this unique book set. Get The Bundle

On the Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Church honors Mary not because she sought earthly power or glory — but because of her unique closeness to Christ the King.

Every title the Church gives her reveals something about her Son, and every authentic devotion to Mary draws us more deeply into the mystery of Jesus Christ.

But with so many Marian titles, dogmas, prayers, and traditions, it can be difficult to understand what they all mean.

Gate of Heaven: Reflections on the Mother of God is an invitation to better understand exactly what the Church teaches about Mary.

Gate of Heaven: Reflections on Mary, the Mother of God

Organized around the four Marian dogmas, traditional antiphons, and Mary’s scriptural role, each reflection offers a richer understanding of the Church’s love for the Blessed Mother.
