Sanctity Through the Rosary

Sanctity Through the Rosary by the theologian Fr. Édouard Hugon is a profound and doctrinally precise spiritual work that is essential for all Catholics to read. In contrast to our world of dangerous doctrinal ambiguity, it simultaneously elevates and strengthens the Faith of the reader while giving the mysteries contained in the Rosary the theological detail and definition they deserve.

 

In the spiritual life, our models in holiness are, after Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph, who cooperated with God. The Rosary has the power to help us appreciate their true role in the economy of salvation. Understanding their role makes our own humble part that much more compelling and beautiful. All Catholics need to understand what this book aims to do, which is to prove that the Rosary is a divine aid given to bring us into union with God.

 

This work is divided into three parts:

 

“There exists between Mary and the priest a striking analogy. Both are mediators between God and man. Mary is co-redemptrix, the priest is co-redemptor. By virtue of his sacred ministry he redeems souls, for he raises them from the dead by restoring or bestowing grace through the Sacraments. Mary is a virgin, so is the priest, yet both are able to say to Jesus, though in a different sense, Filius meus es tu, ego hodie genui te: Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee. By the words of consecration which the priest pronounces, Jesus is born again in that sacramental and mysterious life which He leads on our altars. Again, Mary and the priest beget Jesus in souls.”—Fr. Hugon, Sanctity Through the Rosary
