Why Do Catholics Worship Mary? Book I in the ONE Series

Catholicism holds many mysteries, both for Catholics and non-Catholics, including why Catholics seem to worship Mary. This book, the first in the ONE Series, is an attempt to answer this question in a simple, honest, yet fulfilling way. The author examines both Christian and Catholic Christian viewpoints in order to be fair and promote understanding. By analyzing perceptions about Catholic devotion to Mary using Scripture, history, and reason to explore possible interpretations of the same, Anthony explains devotion to Mary in clear, simple terms.
