by Andy Lee
A Mary like Me unites twenty-first century women with first-century saints by exploring the hearts of some of the most famous women of the Bible. One gave birth to the Son of God, another sat at his feet, and another was the first to proclaim his resurrection. These women shared the name Mary, which means bitter, defiant, and rebellious—and a closer look at Scripture reveals their personalities in light of their name.
A Mary like Me uncovers the fear, doubt, bitterness, and faithlessness the biblical women fought, just as we do. In Jesus’s presence, their weaknesses became strengths and their flaws were redeemed . . . just like ours. Discover camaraderie in the imperfections of the Marys. Comparison paralyzes, but camaraderie found in our less-than-perfect hearts inspires.
