I received an anonymous subscription to "Jesus Today" and wanted to learn about Maria Valtorta's work on the internet. I was captivated by the testimony of scientists about the veracity of her visions. And each time, both in consultation (I am a psychiatrist) and in everyday life with Christians from other denominations, I recommend reading Maria Valtorta on the life of Jesus, and particularly on the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the history of the Church, through Her numerous apparitions, asking these Christians for their return to the Church of Rome.
By strengthening my faith in the Church and the Gospel that I now read daily.
I go to mass every Sunday, barring unforeseen circumstances, and taking my communion, and thanks to the Eucharistic miracles that I introduce to my surroundings, I am convinced that beyond the symbol, it is the Body and Blood of Christ that is found in the host. And it is indeed the work of Maria Valtorta that made us discover these miracles.
I would say that reading Maria Valtorta's work could strengthen one's faith, and show how much Jesus and His Mother love us.

Following the study of Jean-Pierre Petit's equations, and his testimony about having testified to being projected at the time of the construction of the Kephren pyramid, a coherent description, I stumbled upon a post about Maria Valtorta being projected to the time of Jesus.
Having "definitively" considered the inconsistencies, contradictions, errors (the mustard seed that becomes a tree!!!) of the New Testament, I completely abandoned Catholicism and became a Buddhist. The reading of Maria Valtorta, despite some errors due to estimates and transcriptions, surprised me with its great coherence and accuracy.
Each reading allows me to know Jesus (and other characters like Mary) better and therefore to love him more and more. Since then, I have been reading the New Testament with pleasure and finding practically no inconsistencies. I have become practicing again.
Let yourself be bathed in realism and Love. Make the book of Jean-François Lavère, Volume 1, The Valtorta Enigma. This encourages reading the Work of Jesus written by Maria Valtorta. Conversions are taking place.

A work colleague had recommended it to me to deepen my faith.
I have developed a love for Christ that I had never known before.
I was very lukewarm before reading the revealed Gospel but my faith became much stronger afterwards.
Read and you will understand.
Madeleine Gauthier
A good friend introduced me to the 10 volumes.
I am a visual person. These books have GREATLY helped me understand the gospels. I have always had difficulty believing that Jesus loved me to this extent. Now, I have no doubt. How Good and Merciful our Savior is.
My faith has grown a hundredfold. I understand the 7 sacraments better. I have a passion for the Holy Eucharist. How grateful I am to Jesus for giving us His Body and His Precious Blood. How He suffered for me, a great sinner. I will be grateful to Him for all eternity.
Have faith, your soul will thank you. Your soul will heal and you will no longer be afraid to approach your Savior. He awaits you with open arms. He loves you madly; so madly that He went to the Cross to save you.

While praying to the Holy Spirit to guide me on what I should look at on the internet, I came across Maria Valtorta. At that time, I had many questions about the Virgin Mary, such as, how did we know the names of her parents? What about her virginity, given that it is rarely mentioned in the Bible?
I had already read the entire Bible and I read it almost every day. With the work of Maria Valtorta, it allowed me to understand many things (the life of Mary, how they lived at the time....) because in this work there are more details and in my opinion, it helps to better understand the Bible. Thanks to this work, I have expanded my spirituality, I seek more to convert and I try to share around me. I also understood that the Virgin Mary leads us to Jesus. It also changed my view on the Catholic Church. I returned to the church. I regret that this work has not reached our island because I am sure that there would be many practicing believers. Unfortunately, we need the internet to read the work for free and here not everyone has access to the internet and we are obliged to order the work on paper, I went to inquire it costs 30,000 FCFP and we also do not have the means.
I went to confess, something I haven't done in at least 20 years, I returned to mass and communion. I pray the rosary every day, I have subscribed to prayer channels, I constantly pray wherever I am (in the car, in the garden, while cleaning). I UNDERSTOOD THE MESSAGE OF GOD WHICH IS TO BE LOVE TOWARDS ALL IN ALL PLACES AND AT ALL TIMES. AMEN
Read these writings, you will not regret it. This will grow your faith, lead you to conversion, and it will allow you to seek Jesus every day by walking in his footsteps.

I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta through my mother who lent me her books.
Maria Valtorta's work accompanied me during my pilgrimage in Israel, during which I experienced inner peace. The passages I read in the book corresponded to the places we visited (site of the Visitation, home of the Holy Family). I only read the first volume, but it allowed me to better visualize the life of the Virgin Mary and the childhood of Jesus.
In my actual life, I have not felt any tangible impact on my spiritual life but this reading made me discover the Gospels in a different way and increased my curiosity for the Virgin Mary.
I would highly recommend it as it's an easy and very vivid read.
I wish to add that I had the feeling of a holy text while reading this book.

I learned about the work of Maria Valtorta from my mother since the 1990s. She was subscribed at the time to the Stella Maris magazine. She would share with me, from time to time, the stories of Marian apparitions, in France, Portugal, Yugoslavia. It was only in 2019-2021 that after searching for this work in vain since 1997 (I was initially 18 years old), I learned about the existence of websites that provided access to the entirety of this work. My little sister had sent me this link: https://maria-valtorta.org/ during COVID and I found others afterwards.
1- The work allowed me to clearly place JESUS-CHRIST in time in a precise manner. 2- The work allowed me to clearly see that GOD is sovereign and that he is truly free. He does what he wants when he wants, as he wants. 3- I saw the apostles in their skin of simple men, fragile like me, heroic at times, slanderous like the Christians I associate with... in short! Men, not superheroes. Men like me. 4- I see that GOD rejects no one. I note that JESUS-CHRIST and the HOLY VIRGIN did everything (exhortations, prayers... everything) to save Judas. I really had doubts about his damnation. 5- I better understood the meaning of marriage, the danger of sexual disorder and divination. 6- The gospels speak the truth. Indeed, all the libraries would not be enough to contain the testimonies of Christ. 10 volumes but we still haven't seen everything.
I have walked again with Jesus. How can I say that I have walked again with JESUS CHRIST? I ask you to revisit the testimony of the disciples of Emmaus. I read the work over 3 years. Each time I returned to read it, my heart was burning. "The soul recognizes its creator" it is said. As a Catholic who had cooled down, I rediscovered that the sacraments are true. Especially that of reconciliation that many do not like in the Church. If JESUS CHRIST and the Blessed Virgin did not give up on Judas whom they knew was lost due to his refusal to save himself, who am I to discourage myself? If JESUS CHRIST suffered this horror that I read for me, why wouldn't I confess even to the most sinful of priests? Their weakness is not an obstacle for me, but an opportunity to save myself. I say this because around me, some claim that they cannot lower themselves before someone who sins as much or more than they do.
I will say: Several thousand scientifically verified details. "Seek GOD while He may be found". The work is GOD's nth attempt to open our eyes. If you truly believe that GOD cannot let you get lost, you lose nothing. Just read, and afterwards we meet again for your testimony.

In the autumn of 2024, thanks to a person I met during the weekly rosary I participated in July. I then discovered on Youtube: "The Gospel as it was revealed to me". I listened every day for weeks.
Thus, after more than 40 years of spiritual wandering, I was able to reconnect with my Faith in the Gospel and in Jesus Christ. Step by step, in the simple and powerful understanding of Jesus' testimony to Maria. I gradually felt myself connecting to Jesus' love for me. I regained confidence and acceptance of being loved as I am. I grew, matured, in understanding of Christ's message of peace and his passage on this Earth. I was able to return to prayer, fully aware, in complete freedom. I nourish myself every day with his Love.
I was able to return to prayer with more joy and certainty of being heard and listened to. I go to mass every Sunday. The Eucharist nourishes me with strength and wisdom. I am part of a Christian movement for retirees where I co-host the monthly meetings. I am part of the Parish Animation Team (E.A.P.). Beyond these involvements, I feel revived, full of joy and enthusiasm. I welcome what Is and I align myself as best I can every day, in thought, word and deed, to bear witness to the Love of Jesus in me and for all of us. I testify to my return to Faith without complex and animated by the desire to share my so beneficial experience on my life.
Let yourself be guided, accept to receive this work in your heart as a divine gift reaching out to you. Let your doubts and fears drift away, trust yourself. Learn to listen to yourself, to receive, to perceive, to believe in all simplicity. Take your time, go at your own pace, this online work is a meditation, a care, a teaching, a revelation.

I discovered this work in 1985, I was 22 years old. My faith was languishing due to a lack of spiritual nourishment. Providence allowed me to read a book where the Lord indicated that he had dictated a wonderful work to Maria Valtorta - a victim soul - That he was the Author of this work and that it would provoke furious reactions from Satan. That the work would face great resistance in the Church, but that, if it was studied and meditated upon, it would bring immense good to so many souls. That this work is a source of serious and solid culture and will have great success in his regenerated Church.
So, I bought the 10 volumes (5000 pages). I was immediately captivated by its content. I read 50 pages a day and finished the work after 3 months of reading. Through this reading, I discovered an intimate journey with the Lord and His apostles, each with their own character. The historical, geographical, and cultural parts provide a complete clarification of life in Palestine 2000 years ago. The Gospel is intertwined in these stories, which specifically provide the context for the words read in the New Testament. A magnificent richness. The flavor of the Gospel is quite different, as it is enriched by a framework that makes it more real and credible, and gives it an understanding accessible to all. Sharing in the Lord's sufferings, in the face of the harshness of his fellow citizens. Rejoicing in the love of his apostles and disciples. The love of Mary for her son, burdened with suffering from men. I received this work as a wink from the Lord telling me: "Read, this will interest you!" Thank you, Lord.
This work has completely changed my relationship with the Lord. From distant, He has become present and accessible. His nature as True God and True Man is palpable on every page of the work. What kindness, gentleness, and availability from the Lord. Incredible model! My life of Faith has transformed. The Lord has taken the first place in my life. Prayer, the sacraments, the Church take on a new relief. It's as if you were nearsighted and you put on glasses, you go from a vision of 2/10 to a vision of 12/10. Everything is new and precise, a new world opens up. Reading the Gospel takes on a new and attractive light. This work has allowed me to structure my faith, to balance it and make it unshakeable. I acknowledge that this was a great grace granted by the Lord. At the first reading of the work, I received a grace of conversion when reading the Passion of Christ, volume 9. The account of the crucifixion is formidable! To this day, I have re-read the 10 volumes 6 times.
I will say that, from my personal experience, I strongly advise him to immerse himself in the footsteps of Jesus, to follow him in his wanderings in Palestine. To discover all the riches of the Lord's message. He will read and listen to the Gospel with great attention. For the Greater Glory of God and his Church, One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic, Roman.

A friend lent me his books.
I have come to know and love Jesus in His humanity and His divinity.
I shared it with my spouse who had a rather latent faith. He fell in love with Christ and is now heavily involved in the Church.
I recommend to everyone and the clergy to read this great Gift of Jesus Christ, for our time. It changes nothing of His Gospel, but brings delightful clarifications. We feel Him so close to each person and so welcoming to all.
A must read. Thanks to Jesus for this generous Gift. Thanks to Maria Valtorta for agreeing to write her visions under more than difficult conditions.
Your testimony can encourage other people to discover Maria Valtorta's work and contribute to the ecclesiastical study of this important case.
