Higgs offers painstaking biblical exegesis to demonstrate how Mary Magdalene has been "myth-understood." For example, Higgs shows that there's no biblical evidence that Mary was a prostitute, and claims that she was probably old enough to be Jesus' mother. She was a woman of independent means, supporting Jesus' ministry with her financial generosity. She was not the woman who anointed Jesus' feet with oil (that was yet another Mary, Mary of Bethany). Finally, and most importantly, she was the person Jesus appeared to first after his Resurrection and entrusted with the news of his appearing. Higgs, with her conversational style and characteristic humour, is the perfect author/speaker to popularize such scholarship. While Jesus no doubt redeemed Mary Magdalene's soul, Higgs has nobly rehabilitated her reputation.

Learn lessons from Sapphira, Michal, and Potiphar’s wife on what not to do, while the sinful woman who anointed the feet of Jesus sheds timeless tears that still touch hearts today. Join hundreds of women as they laugh and learn with Liz Curtis Higgs.
With his unique humorous style, Ken Davies takes a look at the clues around the shortest verse in the Bible to give us a remarkable perspective on why Jesus wept. But he doesn’t stop there. Ken’s view: If you know what makes God cry, then you know how to make Him dance! This wonderfully entertaining message is filled with hope and encouragement for people of all ages.
Best-selling author and communicator Ken Davies takes us on a funny tour through the things that make for real joy in our everyday, pressure-filled lives. In the middle of some of the best comedy you’ll ever experience, Ken shows us that inside all the craziness of our lives is the real reason for living with joy — because that’s the way God intended it to be.
