Mystic Pearl: A Mary Magdalene Novel, (Paperback)

<p><b>MARY MAGDALENE WAS NEVER A PROSTITUTE.</b> </p><p>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. </p><p> 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.<br></p>
