The early Christians formed communities to follow the risen Jesus. One such community wrote down its gospel story, but sometime in those early years, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene disappeared. In the late nineteenth century, it surfaced in the Cairo marketplace, and today, contemporary Christians are embracing the message of this Magdalene Gospel. The Magdalene Mystique invites readers into the spiritual life of an actual community that celebrates Mary Magdalene as mystic and visionary, beloved companion of Jesus, and first witness to the resurrection. Following Mary’s gospel, the community seeks to embody an ethos of equality and justice. With historic background based on the scholarship of prominent researchers including Karen King and Jane Schaberg, plus prayers, liturgies, and real-life stories, this is a powerful book for group study and private devotion.

MARY MAGDALENE WAS NEVER A PROSTITUTE. INSTEAD, MARY OF MAGDALA was a spoiled, rich Jewish aristocrat who committed every kind of sin as she matured. Brave, intelligent and adventurous, this young woman questioned the patriarchal Hebrew faith, and embarked on a spiritual journey that led her to the university in Alexandria, Egypt. There, she embraced the excesses of this Roman city, a place Hebrews saw as filled with debauchery. When she finished her studies, she took over the family fishing village on the Sea of Galilee, where she eventually met Jesus of Nazareth. Mary Magdalene becomes a disciple of Jesus; and before he dies, Jesus calls her Apostle of the Apostles. In 1969, the Roman Catholic Church formally acknowledged Mary Magdalene was never a prostitute, and yet this is still common knowledge in the United States. The Vatican, in fact, announced that she was the Apostle of the Apostles. Finally, in 2006, Mary Magdalene was canonized by the Catholic Church. Her recognition is long overdue.
