The Biblical Roots of the Marian Consecration
By Shane Kapler · Published by TAN Books
Overview
Is Marian consecration truly rooted in Sacred Scripture? In Marian Consecration Is Biblical, Shane Kapler demonstrates that devotion to the Blessed Virgin is not a later invention but is woven throughout God's plan of salvation from Genesis to Revelation. Drawing from Scripture, the Church Fathers, and the Church's living Tradition, Kapler reveals how Mary's unique role as Mother of God, New Eve, and Queen of Heaven is firmly grounded in the biblical narrative.
With clarity and pastoral insight, the author explains how entrusting oneself to Mary through consecration, praying the Rosary, wearing the Brown Scapular, and observing the Five First Saturdays all flow naturally from the Gospel. He shows that Mary always leads souls more perfectly to Jesus Christ, inviting readers to imitate her complete surrender to the Holy Spirit and to participate more deeply in God's work of redemption.

Word in her Womb
For critics of St. Montfort;s obsequious schmaltz, this book provides the ballast that one wishes the Marian doctor had taken the time to include in his original writings. There could be nothing more biblical than devotion to Mary, and nobody has ever loved the Word more than Mary, but having it spelled out should lay those criticisms to rest.
