Unfortunately for all women, Mary Magdalene’s central role in the ministry of Jesus was soon eclipsed by apostles and popes, but it was never forgotten. Unbeknownst to the Church, her progeny has preserved her legacy, and now, after two millennium hiding in the shadows, it’s time once more for a matriarch to assert herself on the world stage.
