Daughter of Jerusalem

Daughters of Faith #1

by Thom Lemmons

In Daughter Of Jerusalem we will watch as Mary Magdalene, one who was lost, then found, reaches in compassion toward other wandering sheep of the house of Israel. We will observe how the women of the company of disciples function, if not as heads of the body of believers, then certainly as its heart. Through Mary's eyes, we will see the birth of the infant church and experience the heady excitement of the early days following Pentecost, when Peter and the other apostle speak boldly before men they would previously have feared to cross. We also will see the changes taking place within Mary's heart-changes which may permit her to triumph over the wounds of her past and learn to trust once again.

[Brianna · Rating 4 out of 5]

I found this book at my local library while searching for information about Mary Magdalene and I'm very glad I did. Although it is a work of fiction, it is based on fact of the New Testament. Since we don't know everything that happened back then, we can only glean information from the Bible. This book gave me a lot to think about and I hope it does the same for you. I think I may look for more of Thom Lemmons' books.
