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!!

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.

Discovery of the work

I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta through a friend from my mothers' prayer group and through Jesus Today, which I receive every day.

Impact on faith

It is primarily the teachings of Jesus that help me deepen my faith.

Graces received

Return to the sacrament of reconciliation every month, rosary every day and above all, help to become better.

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

Simply read the work of Maria Valtorta. The volumes being very numerous, register on Jesus Today and read the teachings of Jesus.

Discovery of the work

I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta thanks to the Marie de Nazareth association.

Impact on faith

This reading allowed me to better understand the sometimes abstract Gospel, thanks to the many details reported by Maria Valtorta, one can wonder how she could have described them with such clarity without actually having really seen them.

Graces received

Return to a deeper life of faith where teachings take on even more of their full meaning.

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

Do not hesitate because everything is so beautiful and well described, despite sometimes difficult passages, which question our way of living, daily, our faith...

Discovery of the work

On the occasion of a pilgrimage to Medjugorje, the group often spoke of this mystic and my curiosity piqued, led me to the works of Maria Valtorta.

Impact on faith

The impact was visible in the form of an emotion that made me cry every 2 pages (there are 6000 in the 10 volumes). I was overwhelmed (in the literal sense of the word) by the Love that emanated from these writings.

Graces received

I started attending Church again without taking communion, and I would always cry during the latter. Without explanation, a great uncontrollable emotion. Then, after confession, I took communion again, still with these uncontrollable tears.

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

It is a Gift from Heaven on Earth. Everything exudes Holiness and these Writings are contagious with the Divine Love that is imbued in them. In a word: SUPERNATURAL.

Discovery of the work

By subscribing to Jesus today.

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

It's rediscovering Jesus and Mary with added emotions. They become alive, so close, so real. My faith has been rekindled. I have regained the taste for reading the gospels.

Monique de Saint Mars

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

I heard about it from a friend, after starting to read, all the novels seemed indigestible to me. I started to read, without stopping, I can no longer read anything else; I read a lot but nothing else has flavor, I believed what my education told me, to believe, nothing more.

Impact on faith

I had lukewarm faith, learned in catechism. Jesus is alive, tangible, present, everything is as if illuminated, I never tire of reading the Gospel.

Graces received

I pray as one speaks with friends.

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

Indispensable, one must read it, immerse oneself in it, life is changed by it.

Discovery of the work

My father, president of the association For Unity, lent me the ten volumes successively in the 80s, the reading of which served me as an evening prayer.

Impact on faith

The Gospels have become very concrete. Mary has become a mother in everyday life. I better understood the role of Joseph and above all Jesus has become a brother, a guide and a real flesh-and-blood being with sorrows, pains, joys and daily satisfactions.

Graces received

My faith has become concrete but two great moments transformed me: the explanation of our Father and Holy Thursday. And what to say about the Passion except that it is difficult to hold back tears. It is a precious support for the meditation of the rosary as we envision in spirit what Maria has reported to us. What daily joy to find an extract each day in "Jesus today".

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

That one should perhaps start reading it with the intermediate volumes because the first one might be a bit difficult to get passionate about. And even if Monsignor Lopez considered it a charming fictional story, Pope Francis had recommended reading it at the beginning of 2023 when no one could suspect him of loving the fantastic!
