Mary Magdalene

By Diana Wallis Taylor
Long maligned as a prostitute or a woman of questionable reputation, Mary Magdalene’s murky story seems lost to the sands of time. Now a portrait of this enigmatic woman comes to life in the hands of an imaginative master storyteller. Diana Wallis Taylor’s Mary is a woman devastated by circumstances beyond her control and plagued with terrifying dreams-until she has a life-changing confrontation with the Savior.
Taylor explores the story of Mary Magdalene, the cherished only child of a successful Galilean, who suffers family betrayal, extreme danger and a life filled with hopelessness. Could the new rabbi, Jesus, be the one to heal and deliver her?
ISLAND BREEZES
Diana Wallis Taylor has written a beautiful story of Mary of Magdala and of our Messiah.
Mary’s life was a tragic one for years until Jesus touched her life.
When Mary’s life was once again filled with grief, where else could she turn, but to Jesus.
I look forward to this author’s next book.
Warning: If you don’t have that box of tissues nearby, you’ll have tear drops on your pages.
