In Luke 2, after the birth of Christ, the shepherds make known what
they had been told about Jesus, and Mary “treasured all these words and
pondered them in her heart” (Luke 2:19).
Our Lady’s heart is a
place of solace and safety. Her will was so united to the will of God
that her reflection, her ability to utilize her intellect and her mind
to understand what was before her, continued to predispose her heart,
her affectivity, her emotion toward the will of the Father.
Following this example, With All Her Mind
shows how the feminine genius involves both affectivity and active
intellectual engagement, and calls readers to pursue what is too often
excluded from our picture of femininity: the intellectual life.
