"Saint Mary Magdalene has finally been given her deserved praise
and understanding. Her amazing story of renewed life, restored love
and relentless devotion to Christ as Savior is deeply
inspiring!"
-- Mother Dolores Hart, O.S.B., Author, The Ear of the Heart: An
Actress' Journey from Hollywood to Holy Vows p>"This bracing
immersion into the life, heart and soul of one of the most
misunderstood and misrepresented of saints, is rooted in Scripture,
history, and deep contemplation. It calls us to emulate Magdalene's
'holy recklessness' and her radical adoration of Jesus Christ in
the Blessed Sacrament."
-- Carl Olson, Author, Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?"Those
longing to sit quietly 'at his feet' in times of eucharistic
adoration will find Saint Mary Magdalene already there, with her
tears, her ointment, her devoted love and her deep attentiveness to
his hidden presence. This thoughtful exploration of Magdalene's
life and her gifts of contrition, gratitude and adoration will
inspire all who long to dwell quietly in his presence in the
company of the saints."
-- Dan Guernsey, Author, Adoration: Eucharistic Texts and Prayers
throughout Church History p>"Drawing from Scripture and
scholarship, Father Davidson paints a soul-stirring portrait of the
'Apostle to the Apostles' that speaks directly to the heart of the
reader. Filled with remarkable insights, this is a highly engaging
and deeply moving look at how the encounter with Christ can truly
change your life."
-- Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers, Author, Behold the Man: A Catholic
Vision of Male Spirituality"The life of Saint Magdalene bears
witness to the infinite mercy of Christ, and our world stands in
great need of an outpouring of divine mercy today. This work goes
to the heart of the identity of this holy woman who was above all
an ardent adorer in spirit and in truth. May her example enkindle a
new fire of love for Christ in our hearts."
-- Father Florian Racine, Rector of the Basilica of Saint Mary
Magdalene, France, Author, Could You Not Watch with Me One Hour?
