The Apostolic Road

di David Michael Bouterie (Autore)

Resource Publications, 2026

For centuries, Christians have honored Mary with titles, stories, and devotions that grew far beyond the brief, beautiful portrait preserved in Scripture. The Apostolic Road invites readers to step back through time and examine how those later traditions emerged--through apocryphal writings, cultural imagination, and the powerful pull of inherited devotion. Drawing on Scripture, the early Fathers, and modern scholarship, David Michael Bouterie traces how the Mary of the New Testament gradually became the Mary of global Catholic piety. He explores how silence in the biblical record opened space for legend, how ancient goddess imagery shaped Christian art and devotion, and how well-intentioned theological developments sometimes obscured the humanity of Christ himself. Yet this book is not a rejection of Mary. It is a restoration of her true dignity: a faithful Jewish disciple whose greatness lies not in celestial titles but in her witness to the sufficiency of Christ. Clear, historically grounded, and pastorally written, The Apostolic Road calls readers to return to the foundation the apostles laid--where Christ stands at the center, Scripture speaks with clarity, and the road of faith remains simple, ancient, and strong.
