A refreshing alternative to the more common, male-centric view of Christianity's history

New Thought minister Ruth L. Miller, Ph.D. presents Notre Dame: Mary Magdalene & the Divine Feminine in Our Lives & Culture, a thoughtful discussion of the history of religious heritage in western culture from a feminist point of view. Chapters contemplate Mary Magdalene's role in the birth of Christianity, including historical evidence that she played a tremendous role in spreading the nascent faith despite the modern Roman church's overwhelming emphasis on Paul's texts. The place that Mary, Mother of God occupies in the hearts of the faithful worldwide, from ancient history through the modern day, is also discussed at length. A refreshing alternative to the more common, male-centric view of Christianity's history, Notre Dame is a deeply respectful and reverent text chronicling the divine feminine within the modern way of life. Highly recommended for college library and women's studies shelves.
