Discovery of the work

Through the Jesus Today newsletter.

Impact on faith

Following Jesus, as a disciple, in the detail of the canonical gospels, taught me to truly love Him for who He is: God made Man, savior and redeemer, come to teach us to love God and our neighbor... following the example of His Life and His Death.

Graces received

Baptized, I had not been to the sacraments for over 20 years. "Following" Christ, like a disciple of his time for a year (reading time), allowed me to understand the meaning of the word "conversion"... that is to say, leaving the intellectual level of my relationship with God to truly move to the spiritual level. Since then, I go to the sacrament of forgiveness several times a month and I take communion as often as possible (several times a week).

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

As Pope Pius XII recommended: read (the entire work) and you will understand...

Discovery of the work

I became acquainted with the work of Maria Valtorta through a conference given by Father Pag猫s. I "accidentally" opened this video which encouraged me to read Maria's writings, published on the web. From the first lines, my love for Jesus literally exploded, my eyes were opened to the teachings of my childhood, my first communion and my solemn communion came back to my memory with astonishing precision, and I even remembered the words of the old priest to the little girls crowned in white: "For God, you are unique and irreplaceable!"

Impact on faith

I saw Jesus as a living person, incarnate, I heard His Words as if I was present with his disciples. Every word became clear and accessible both to my mind and my heart, something I had never felt when I used to go to mass;

Graces received

I can accompany my grandchildren who have requested baptism; my view on my life and my sins has opened.

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

What are you afraid of? In all religions, there are things to take and leave, But in the gospels, NOTHING is to be thrown away, each Word opens a world and Maria Valtorta allows us to receive this Word right in the heart!

Understanding the sacraments and the acts of Jesus.

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

This is the revelation of Marie's life from her birth to her death, what she experienced and how she redeemed women. Also how Jesus redeemed men.

Discovery of the work

I knew him through the Marie de Nazareth association and Providence wanted that one day I stumble on Youtube on an excerpt from the Gospel as it was revealed to Maria VALTORTA.

Impact on faith

Listening to the CDs allowed me to better understand the Gospel and the Infinite Love that Jesus has for us.

Graces received

I was a very great sinner but thanks to the Gospel as it was revealed to Maria VALTORTA, which allowed me to understand everything that Jesus did for us, I had a radical conversion (as the Exorcist Priest told me). I stopped sinning as I did out of love for Jesus, I will go every day (I have only attended mass once because I was hospitalized urgently), I pray the rosary every day, I have made an act of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary through the Scapular of Mount Carmel, I share excerpts from the Gospel as it was revealed to Maria VALTORTA on Facebook every day and I know that other people have also returned to prayer by reading the shares and that is thanks to this work. I should note that I had been away from mass for nearly 40 years.

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

Read this work, open your heart and Jesus will enter. You will not even notice it and yet a flame will ignite in you with such a burning fire that you will be ever more drawn towards GOD.

Discovery of the work

By the site Mary of Nazareth.

Impact on faith

I started reading the Gospel as it was revealed to me by Maria Valtorta out of curiosity and I continued reading it daily in its entirety. I was unable to detach myself from it. I then bought the Jerusalem Bible.

Graces received

This reading prompted me to reconnect with my religious roots by giving them full meaning in everyday life. It has awakened in me a thirst for knowledge of the great religious texts. I try to pray as often as possible for everyone around me, good or bad. Living mainly in Greece, I was baptized in the Orthodox rite. This helps me feel more in community with God in this very believing country.

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

One is not obliged to practice a linear reading. It is interesting to cross this reading with the texts of the day's mass. This allows for a better illumination of the word of Jesus Christ by emphasizing the context and/or developing it more extensively.

Discovery of the work

I believe I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta through videos found on Youtube.

Impact on faith

Reading Maria Valtorta revitalized my faith because it gives the feeling of witnessing the scenes, of being closer to the characters, which in my opinion makes the Gospel more alive, more touching.

Graces received

This has allowed me to regain the motivation to return to mass on a weekly basis, to reconnect with prayer on a daily basis, and to feel closer to Jesus.

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

I find that it's the perfect reading to complement the Bible.

Discovery of the work

Internet. Jesus having told us: "Seek and you will find", I searched and found his writings, by what I call divine providence. Seeing that Pope Pius XII authorized the layout, even ending his point of view with "... those who read will understand... ", I undertook the reading to finish it about 18 months later.

Impact on faith

Several questions and more detailed information, often during a discussion and explanations given to the apostles, or during a one-on-one discussion with an apostle; how many discussions did He have with Judas! This reading allowed me to better understand a number of points that remained obscure in the reading of the Gospels.

Graces received

A new awakening to my faith; a greater desire to share it, to arouse the curiosity of research in my brothers and sisters; to the follow-up of celebrations... but I still have a long way to go.

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

Truth presents itself to you, but... God respects all freedom, and forces no one; He knocks at your door, waits, but will never call the locksmith...

Isabelle

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

We are Anne and Isabelle, both educated in the same religious school with the common characteristic of being two blind people. Our paths are different but it was when our paths of faith came closer that we discovered Maria Valtorta. Anne was looking for information about her patron saint and the childhood of Mary, and one Sunday came across a rerun of a children's adaptation of Maria Valtorta's visions of the hidden life of Mary and Jesus. So we looked for the complete work and found the audio version on "Gathering In His Image."

Impact on faith

The first thought that came to us was that indeed we had lived more than half a century without ever hearing about this monumental work and that we had still received the Word of God, but that everything would have been so much easier for us if only, in parallel with the canonical texts, we had been read the particular illumination given by the visions of Maria Valtorta! We also noted that these stories confirm intuitions that were not only ours but also those of great saints like Pope John Paul II. To cite just one example, at the end of his Gospel, John explains that after His Resurrection, the signs given by Jesus would fill an infinite number of volumes on their own. Precisely, the appearance of Jesus to His most holy Mother, which is not reported by any canonical evangelist, has been the subject of such intuitions and we dreamed of being able to read the account somewhere one day, convinced as we were, like Saint John Paul II, that it could not have failed to occur.

Graces received

While I spent years questioning Catholic dogmas about Mary, Maria Valtorta helped me understand: Mary is our mother as well as that of Jesus, true man and true God. Mary was indeed conceived without inheriting either the original sin of our first parents, or any sin from her own parents. Yes, Mary was indeed the virginal wife of Joseph (and not his "wife"), and the "brothers and sisters" of Jesus are actually cousins, the same word being used to describe these family ties in Semitic languages even today. Mary cooperated more than anyone else in the redemptive work of her Divine Son, which she accepted as such from the first day since having spent years in the Temple of Jerusalem, she could not ignore that the Suffering Servant described notably by Isaiah but also by Psalm 21, was not someone else, as evidenced by this moving scene with Elizabeth seen by Maria! Yes, Mary did indeed pass from her earthly life to eternal life with her soul and her body very much alive, John saw her!

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

Upon discovering the work of Maria Valtorta, one finds oneself in increased proximity to the canonical texts proposed by the liturgy. Far from opposing, the two approaches complement each other to a point that will surprise you day after day!

Discovery of the work

Via internet.

Impact on faith

I felt like I was piecing together the fragments of a chopped-up, overly synthetic Gospel text, with doubts about the coherence of the story. The text and the visions described by Maria are a true revelation of this crucial moment in our humanity, which simply reproduces Jesus' journey on our earth 2000 years ago. Everything becomes visible, the environment, the geographical, political, religious, and human context. Everything becomes understandable, coherent, and real. I am in the process of reading this fascinating work for the second time and I am discovering the true language of Jesus (not reported) and I understand better the content of his message. Essential for every Christian, and to eliminate all residual doubts about the possibilities of such a story that did indeed take place.

Graces received

I go to mass every Sunday and pray every day. Thanks to MARIA, true messenger of the spirit of God.

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

I would advise him to read the writings of Maria Valtorta, for my part it really strengthened my faith and dispelled my doubts.

Discovery of the work

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.

Impact on faith

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.

Graces received

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.

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

Let yourself be bathed in realism and Love. Make the book of Jean-Fran莽ois Lav猫re, Volume 1, The Valtorta Enigma. This encourages reading the Work of Jesus written by Maria Valtorta. Conversions are taking place.
