Presenter: Mary Ann Hinsdale, I.H.M.
At this celebration of the feast day of St. Mary of Magdala, Sr. Hinsdale offers a review of recent scholarship on Mary Magdalene, discusses what we can say historically about Mary Magdalene and some possible explanations for her disappearance from our ecclesial memory, and suggests implications that recovering a “Magdalene tradition” might have for our ecclesial conversations on the role of women in the Church.
