Debunking Myths About St. Mary Magdalene - Living Divine Mercy (EWTN) Ep. 253 w/ Fr. Chris Alar

About this sermon

Jesus had a different attitude towards women than the culture of his day. Back then, women had no social status, and they were often assigned inferior roles. But the women with Jesus were happy to serve quietly and they gave generously out of their resources. A key woman in that group was St. Mary Magdalene, mentioned a dozen times in the Gospels, which is more than most apostles. Who was she, and how did the Da Vinci Code get the facts so wrong? Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then join Fr. Mark Baron, MIC, as he presents the third episode in our series, “Marian Route to USA 250: One Nation Under God’s Mercy,” this time visiting the place where Catholic America first touched our shores. Here, missionaries brought the cross, the Mass, and devotion to Our Lady, planting seeds of faith that would shape the spiritual story of this land. Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Thursday at 10 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
