Abstract

"A novel which tells of Mary of Magdala (Mary Magdalene), one of the women followers of Jesus and the first to see Jesus after His resurrection ... A novel which deals with the idea of taking the new life one finds in Christ back to one's own surroundings. "Trying to smile, Joanna nodded. . . . 'after hearing the Master, seeing the miracles, all else will seem useless.' "'But it doesn't have to, Joanna!' Mary told her. 'Think what an opportunity you will have. You can share with others the new life that Jesus has given you, a life of purpose. . . . You have a mission, to tell others the stories you have learned, to show them life can be more than what they currently are experiencing." "'You never cease to surprise me,' a masculine voice behind her said, and Mary looked over her shoulder to see Matthew walking up beside her. 'I overheard some of what you told Joanna,' he told her. 'That was quite impressive. I had never thought of what we have learned here as something to take with us when we leave.'"--Publisher description.
