In Sentinel of the Invisible, Marie Bobin offers a Christian and spiritual reflection on women’s vocation, dignity and place within humanity.

Through a contemplative approach, the author invites readers to consider womanhood, suffering, the relationship between men and women and the spiritual mission entrusted to women throughout biblical history.

A Christian meditation on women’s vocation

This book presents woman as an essential figure within humanity and as an attentive guardian of the invisible realities of faith, love and the interior life.

The author particularly reflects on the women of the Old Testament, whose vocations and commitments, according to Christian tradition, helped prepare for the coming of the Messiah.

Four chapters for deeper reflection

The book is divided into four main sections:

  • Woman as a symbol of humanity;
  • The suffering and co-redeeming woman;
  • The mystical veil of woman: a sanctuary;
  • Woman for man.

These themes are presented from the author’s personal spiritual and theological perspective. The book invites meditative reading rather than offering a sociological study of the position of women.

A book for prayer and contemplation

In his foreword, Father F. Marlière recommends approaching this book in a spirit of prayer and contemplation. It encourages personal reflection on faith, vocation, the relationship between men and women and spiritual transmission.

This book is particularly suitable for:

  • women wishing to deepen their Christian vocation;
  • readers interested in women’s spirituality;
  • prayer and discussion groups;
  • spiritual advisers;
  • those studying women’s place within Christian tradition.

A meaningful spiritual gift

Sentinel of the Invisible makes a thoughtful gift for a woman of faith, a religious sister, a spiritual adviser or anyone interested in women’s place and mission within Christianity.
