Recently I read three books that in profound and positive way affected me, allowed me to grow and heal further."On our best behavior" by Eloise Loehnen talks about seven "deadly sins" that women are shamed to submit to in order to suppress their power and potential."Mary Magdalene revealed" by Meggan Watterson shares a true story of Mary Magdalene who was falsely disgraced and portrayed as a prostitute because she was dangerous as one of Jesus's favorite disciple with her own powerful teachings and knowledge. And lastly, from the same author "The girl who baptized herself" tell a story about Thecla, who stood to suppressing and outdated rules and laws, baptize herself, listen to her calling and was saved by other women. I believe there is a bit of Mary Magdalane and Thecla in all of us and understanding their stories and mechanics of patriarchal society was extremely empowering and healing me.
