Mary Magdalene: The Hidden Apostle
"Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute. Rather, she was
a woman of wealth whose financial support was crucial to the
early survival of Christianity. But, as BIOGRAPHY® reveals,
the special relationship she had with Christ led to resentment
among the other disciples, and her reputation was tarnished
as a result. Drawing on ancient texts, rare art and the research
of top scholars at Harvard, Yale, Catholic University and the
University of Wisconsin, this far-reaching portrait compares
the evidence we have with the stories we have heard--and tries
to reconcile them."

Intimate Portrait: Mary Magdalen from
Lifetime TV features Archbishop Rembert Weakland.
"Mary Magdalen, who came from a village near the Sea of Galilee,
is cited in four biblical references (found in Luke, Mark, Matthew
and John). In 'Intimate Portrait: Mary Magdalen,' this woman's
changing image will become a lens through which we will discover
the values and morals of each age that has interpreted her. The
one-hour documentary will also emphasize today's attitude by the
Catholic church toward the ordination of women and other relevant
issues."
