Today on the show we are so glad to welcome special guest, Dr. Jennifer Powell McNutt. Jennifer is a professor at Wheaton College who specializes in Reformation history and theology, and has a new book available now titled “The Mary we Forgot: What the Apostle to the Apostles Teaches the Church Today.” This important work sheds new light on the life and legacy of Mary Magdalene, a woman who we know was a witness at the cross and the first one sent by Christ to preach his resurrection. Yet she is a figure whose story is often confused, scandalized, and undervalued by the church. Dr. McNutt unpacks Scripture and history to reveal the real Mary Magdalene: the first apostle of the good news and a model of discipleship for both men and women today.
