When Jennifer McNutt’s newest book arrived in the mail, I instantly started flipping through it (and immediately texted a friend)! What I held in my hands, was a beautiful, thoughtful, and thorough look at the person and character of Mary Magdelene and as a female theologian, it felt like a real gift. The Mary We Forgot delves into history and our current times and, as I reflect even further, communicates to us as much about ourselves and who we are and have been discipled to be as it does who Mary, that faithful disciple of Jesus, was in her first century world. I hope you’ll find this conversation, and book, to be the gift I found them to be.
