and many doubts, you must
set your heart on fire.

The Meaning of Mary Magdalene: Discovering the Woman at the Heart of Christianity
Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault has a radical view of Mary Magdalene as Jesus’ most important disciple, the one he considered to understand his teaching best. Cynthia shows how an understanding of Mary Magdalene can revitalize contemporary Christianity, how Christians and others can, through her, find their way to Jesus’s original teachings and apply them to their modern lives.
