Discovery of the work

Discovered through the internet or a friend (I can't remember), being passionate about mystics in general...

Impact on faith

It's always the same, when we get to know, we understand and we love... with Maria Valtorta we are immersed in the daily life and the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ becomes full of good sense.

Graces received

Maria Valtorta's work is a true enhancer of faith, it brings a deeper and more concrete meaning to the gospels, the parables that Our Lord Jesus Christ loves to use become full of truths and meaning... even though our priests enlighten us a lot during their homilies too!

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Oh how numerous the objections are...! But holy works have always been attacked (it's a good sign) and paradoxically by our men of the Church, think of Saint Joan of Arc, Saint Padre Pio or Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Monfort, Marthe Robin recently... Read... and then you can judge.

Discovery of the work

Mary of Nazareth: the texts of the day's mass followed by the visions received by Maria Valtorta on the gospel of the day and a deepening of faith: dictations from Christ to Maria.

Impact on faith

I bought 3 volumes of the Writings and took ten months to read the one from 1943 (about 4 pages per day). Exceptional spiritual nourishment. These texts enlighten me on many questions I had: for example the link between love and suffering, the sin against the Spirit, the gift of the Eucharist, the struggle between Heaven and Satan, etc.

Graces received

I have the feeling that Jesus himself instructs me, encourages me, enlightens me, strengthens me. What He says about his mother, the very Holy Virgin Mary makes me love and admire her more and more. Wanting to resemble her. Seeing her smile: it's one of my strongest wishes.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Read and judge for yourself. Nothing seems contrary to Catholicism to me. A very rich and beneficial read.

By chance, I had bought volume 9 (on the Passion). I was moved to tears seeing the sufferings of Jesus.

Every day, I read "Jesus Today" in its entirety and I feel closer to Him. He accompanies me.

There is everything to gain.

Marie-Jeanne HARTMANN

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

In 2002, a priest gave my brother, and for my attention, volume 2 of The Gospel as It Was Revealed to Me. My husband and I were then leaving on an expatriation mission to northern Russia. Upon my return to France, in February 2006, when we were settling in Marseille, and I had just placed the book in our library, I read in "Pray in Church": "And what if for this Lent, you read a whole Gospel?". I opened volume 2, and from that moment I realized that it was a sacred reading. It took me 6 years to read 13 volumes. My faith has become a rock of love.

Impact on faith

The scenes were becoming real, because coming from the country of the Volga plains, we were hiking in the rocky landscapes of the calanques of Marseille...I remember reading about the retreat imposed by Jesus on his apostles in the caves of the Judean mountain...and that Sunday when my husband and I crossed the karstic relief of Marseilleveyre. The realism of Maria Valtorta's descriptions, the delicate way of describing Jesus' tenderness fundamentally touched me.

Graces received

My need to express my faith has become imperative. Therefore, I used my Facebook profile (Faith-book) for this purpose. My "spiritual steppe, where my religion was rather intellectual" before 2006 has become, through the reading of the Gospel As It was revealed to me, a source of life, of conviction that Jesus came to save us, despite the fragility of the characters of his apostles. What wonderful discoveries that were followed by graces of pilgrimages in France, Italy, Spain, Israel. My faith has become source and thirst.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

I have distributed all the books countless times, as the Work has been imprinted in me... But I will only say what a Pope Pius (...) said about it: "Read and let people form their own opinion". I carry the love that I received in the visions of the life of Jesus and his holy family, like "a wounded bird", due to so many misunderstandings, and particularly from priests, bishops...

Marie-Odile

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

During this period of Covid when I had more time to myself, I discovered the site JESUS TODAY... there, I heard about MARIA VALTORTA for the first time... From then on, it was an unparalleled joy to discover more about the Life and Work of JESUS... about MARY and her unparalleled tenderness for her son, but also her youth and this wonderful husband that was St JOSEPH... such endearing facts... I had the 10 volumes, plus the Notebooks given to me for my celebrations and birthdays, my husband was also delighted and read them all as well.

Impact on faith

One truly feels that the Gospel we have always known is clearer, more precise, we discover the life and surroundings of JESUS by becoming even more attached to each of the characters. I cannot let a day go by without delving into the so captivating version of JESUS which tells us so much more and which is so sad to see the complications brought about for the general dissemination of his thought... MARIE cried about it...

Graces received

I have always been a believer and practitioner, but I so wish that many more people were convinced of the importance of these EXTRAORDINARY messages of precision and infinite Love from GOD for each of his children. I pray even more and go to mass during the week. I have understood that the souls in Purgatory need prayers and masses. I read more testimonials and lives of Saints. I thank the Internet for allowing me these readings that uplift me morally.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

I would tell people who are hesitant to start with number 1 and then, they will not be able to detach themselves from this fascinating work.

Discovery of the work

A friend gave me volume 1, I then bought the other 9 which I reread in a loop.

Impact on faith

It's a constant wonder. These writings illuminate the Gospel and help me broaden my understanding and deepen my Faith.

Graces received

I have "grown up", I live my Faith more by conscious choice and I try to put into practice the enlightenment received.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

What a grace it is that Jesus grants us to reveal Himself to us in person, to teach us Himself.

Marie-Jos猫phe

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

My mother had been subscribed to the Stella Maris magazine since its inception, which I read with interest. That's where I learned about this work. I started with volume 9 which overwhelmed me. I then bought all the others. My mother did too. We talked about it together, sharing our wonder.

Impact on faith

The too fragmented passages of the Gospel, poorly contextualized or misinterpreted, find a remarkable clarification with Maria Valtorta. The homilies, as beautiful as they may be, cannot compare to the teachings of Jesus. The explanations on certain points that did not seem clear to me have met all my expectations.

Graces received

Jesus is both very close there, revealing himself as a living and real person and shining with the glory of the Son of God. The apostles, with their own character, their misunderstandings or their mistakes, encourage us to get up and continue to move forward. Finally, the life of Mary, her countless sufferings, her role as Co-Redemptrix have made me discover her more intimately and increased my love for her. Stronger prayer life, strengthened faith, more conscious participation in the sacraments.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Splendid work. Spiritual adventure, discovery of so many things. Everyone will find what they are looking for. It is difficult to talk about it properly. You must read this work!!

R茅union 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

Through the book "Maria Valtorta who are you?" by Jean Aulagnier, Resiac editions, then through the Internet.

Impact on faith

Jesus deeply dazzled and touched me. Such light shines in each of his words, each of his actions. My love for him has been rekindled. I am now convinced (despite what I unfortunately heard in my life) that the Gospel is reliable and true in all respects.

Graces received

- Deeper, more intimate faith - Desire to more frequently partake in the sacraments (Eucharist, confession); and with more love and heart. - Better understanding of these. - More fervent prayer - Respect and love for the Church, Tradition, and the Word of God - Better knowledge and understanding of the historical context, the meaning of certain passages in the bible, the catechism of the Church - Desire for holiness - Desire for Heaven

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Read and you will see.
