Memorial: The Mystery of Mary of Bethany

Description

It seems everyone loves a mystery story, but it’s a rare thing to find a mystery story combined with Bible study. Dolores Kimball brings these together and draws out lessons for life that have a special relevance for women. In the author’s words: we will look closely at the mysterious Mary of Bethany, a most unique and remarkable woman whose incredible faith, quiet spirit, and uncanny understanding of spiritual matters are a testimony to the power of God in the life of a woman totally committed to her Lord. Much has been written and taught about Mary and Martha, about Martha’s busyness and Mary’s adoration and worship. But there is more to Mary’s story, much more. As we look closely at Mary’s life, we will find her to be the perfect role model for women today, one whose amazing story deserves to be told and retold, as Jesus said, ‘in memory of her.’
