Devotion to Our Lord in the Womb: The Divine Nine Months

• Meditation on Christ’s unborn life from Annunciation to Nativity
• Insights on humility, obedience, and virtue in the Incarnation
• Clear explanation of Mary’s dignity, fiat, and role in redemption
• Reflections on St. Joseph’s preparation and the Visitation
• Accessible abridgment of Coleridge’s classic 1885 work

This volume offers a concise and prayerful introduction to the devotion to Christ’s life in the womb, a profoundly hidden stage of the Incarnation rich with meaning for believers.

Guiding readers from the Annunciation to the eve of the Nativity, Fr. Henry James Coleridge reflects on the humility of the unborn Christ and the virtues revealed in His earliest human days. 

The book explores Mary’s unique dignity and her fiat, the contrast between her obedience and the fall of Adam and Eve, and the quiet preparation of St. Joseph for his role in salvation history.

The reflections also shed light on the Visitation and the graces poured out upon Elizabeth and John, revealing how the Incarnation shapes every moment of Scripture. 

By simplifying the original 1885 text, this edition makes its rich insights accessible while encouraging deeper meditation on the tenderness, humility, and love shown by Christ -  even before His birth.
