{"product_id":"mary-magdalene-revealed","title":"Mary Magdalene Revealed","description":"\u003cp\u003eA verse-by-verse reading of the Gospel of Mary Magdalene — a text suppressed by the early church and rediscovered in the Egyptian desert — by a Harvard-trained feminist theologian who argues this gospel offers a different Christianity from the one that became canonical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWatterson moves between scholarly close reading and personal memoir, structured around the seven \"powers\" Mary's gospel describes — Darkness, Craving, Ignorance, Craving for Death, Enslavement to the physical body, the False Peace of the Flesh, and Rage. Her central claim: Mary's gospel rejects the doctrines of original sin and shame, and instead frames the human task as becoming a \"true human being\" — a person who has remembered they are both ego and soul, and turns inward to a love already present within. Watterson also addresses how Mary came to be portrayed as a penitent prostitute in church tradition and what a more historically accurate picture suggests about her role in the early Christ movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meggan Watterson\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hay House\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019 (paperback 2021)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeggan Watterson\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWall Street Journal bestselling author and feminist theologian.
