MADONNA SECRET: Sophie Strand

Mary Magdalene's confessions reveal a sensual world of love and betrayal, magic and mystery, hidden within the Gospels. Beginning with Miriam's childhood as a member of a wealthy Jewish family living outside of Bethany, we see her struggles as a young woman with spiritual curiosity and intellectual aspirations that drive her to combat the violence of Empire and the sexism of her own culture. Propelled by mystic visions, Miriam is finally drawn into the wilds of Galilee, where her destiny collides with a mischievous rabbi who will change her and the world forever. Trapped in a mythic story unfolding in events around them, the lovers strive not to repeat a tragedy older than the pyramids. --- In The Madonna Secret, Sophie Strand resurrects a richly textured world where complex characters reveal the lived reality of scripture and open familiar sayings to radical new meanings and possibilities. 11:11 Talk Radio dives deeply into conversations of truth, growth and wisdom to assit individuals in expanding personal growth, conscious living, humanity, and self-awareness.       SIMRAN is a multiple award-winning author, artist, speaker and mystic of love, compassion and humanity.
