SHOW DESCRIPTION:

 

Mary Magdalene is the most famous woman in Christianity, second only to Jesus' mother; she's also the most hotly contested figure in the New Testament. Mary Magdalene, the patron saint of outcasts, embodies uncertainty and has captivated Christians for centuries. But why? Today, we sit down with Sr. Geralyn Schmidt of the Sisters of Christian Charity to unpack some of the misconceptions of this mysterious saint, her theological importance and her impact on the role of women in the Catholic Church.
