This episode reassesses one of the most controversial figures in the Bible, with Mary Magdalene's reputation as a harlot dating from a sermon delivered by Pope Gregory in 591 AD. Author Margaret Starbird sets out to investigate claims made In recent years that not only was Mary Magdalene the wife of Christ, but also the mother of His children, and examines evidence that women may have played a more significant role in the early Christian church than previously thought.
