The Real Mary by Scot Mcknight
Would you like to meet the real Mary of Nazareth? The real Mary was an unmarried, pregnant teenage girl in first-century Palestine. She was a woman of courage, humility, spirit and resolve, and her response to the angel Gabriel shifted the tectonic plates of history. Popular biblical scholar Scot McKnight explores the contours of Mary's life from the moment she learned of God's plan for the Messiah to the culmination of Christ's ministry on earth. Dismantling the myths and challenging our prejudices, the author introduces us to a woman who is a model for faith and who points us to her son.
"The silenced Mary of Protestantism who only shows up quietly at Christmas needs to be dismissed as unhistoricalIt is time for a Mary upgrade in the Evangelical world. Highly recommended!" BEN WITHERINGTON, Professor of New Testament, Asbury Theological Seminary"
