St. Maximillian Kolbe has been a very impactful saint for me in the last year or two, particularly his Marian devotion and so this book was the perfect intersection of these two. I have previously done Marian Consecration, but this was a newer take with the 14 steps provided. I really enjoyed how practical and straightforward the writing was, and it had a very strong voice. The writing suits itself to both experienced Catholics who already have a large knowledge of Kolbe, Our Lady, consecrations, etc. but also lends itself to someone who is unfamiliar with any or all of the topics in the book. I would highly recommend to others, especially the men in my life and know that the tips and mindset expressed in this book will stick with me throughout my faith journey

Thank you to Ave Maria Press and Netgalley for early access to this title in exchange for a honest review.

I loved this unique take on Marian consecration. It was an easy read to grow closer to Mary. The quotes and step by step set up would be useful to use this for a book study.

In recent times, I've understood the true meaning of 'To Jesus Through Mary'. I try to do consecration to Mary every year but at times it feels like a chore.

This book is helpful if you are going through something like that. It has ways on how to plan it and move forward.

Led by the Immaculata is a spiritual guidebook that is sorely needed in our time. By following in the footsteps of Saint Maximilian Kolbe's heroic devotion to Our Lady, Joshua Mazrin has given the reader a wonderful gift: a step-by-step plan to grow in holiness. This fascinating book is easily accessible to all, no matter the level of one's previous theological education. Mazrin writes with words that not only resonate in a masculine manner, but are also useful to every soul engaged in the spiritual warfare of our age. As a parish priest, I believe that many will find this work especially useful in making personal retreats and in consecrating themselves to Christ through Our Lady.

I am blessed to not only call the author a brother in Christ, but also a personal friend. May this book be a blessing to all who read it and advance the reign of Christ the King, through the intercession of the Immaculata!
-Rev. Fr. Shawn Roser, S.T.B.

Led by the Immaculata: St. Maximilian Kolbe's Spiritual Battle Plan for Marian Consecration is a true treasure.

The book takes a traditional--and highly-welcomed--approach to drawing closer to the Lord by dedicating oneself to the Blessed Mother and the Holy Spirit.

I found myself cheering author Joshua Mazrin on as he detailed the great St. Maximilian's path for the kind of life that honors Mary and, ultimately, serves God.

One cannot help but admire the author's celebration of a life well-lived, in tune with the wisdom of the Lord. This book is highly recommended for anyone seeking a closer connection with Christ and with Our Lady.
