July 22 is the feast of Mary Magdalene. Why was she the “apostle to the apostles”? Also, I feature reaources from MM scholar @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/kelleyma...

What a special place! We are back at HoneyRock, Wheaton College’s camp in the Northwoods of WI, where I’m serving as Camp Pastor for a couple weeks preaching and leading devotionals for staff. Camp was a pivotal part of my faith journey as a kid so it’s such a privilege to serve in this way.

I just received my contributor copies of the new issue of The Mockingbird, The Law & Gospel. Honored to be among this group of talented writers! Check out my article, “She Who Hangs Out in Cemeteries.” aka #marymagdalene #mockingbird #themaryweforgot

Talk about thoughtful! I wasn’t able to attend the awards ceremony in Nashville, where my book was a finalist for ECPA Book of the year. In its place, I received this celebratory letter highlighting the recognition of *The Mary We Forgot* Brazos Press. #honored #encouraged Next book in the works!

Some news! I recently accepted an invitation to be a Senior Fellow in the The Center for Pastor Theologians. I’m grateful for this community of ministry leaders and scholars, and the ways our gatherings have enriched my writing and speaking.

Coming soon! I’m thrilled to have a piece in the Law & Gospel issue of The Mockingbird Magazine. My essay is entitled, “She who Hangs out in Cemeteries” #themaryweforgot What is the particular significance of Mary Magdalene at the tomb? I can’t wait to share it with you.

Many thanks to @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social for this endorsement of my new book, *Why I am Protestant*, coming soon from @ivpress.bsky.social Preorders are open now! amzn.to/43qJmka

Next up? I’m heading to the University of Notre Dame to give a lecture at the Marten Program in Homiletics & Liturgics conference. I’ll be speaking on *The Mary We Forgot* and helpful ways to preach about Mary Magdalene from the pulpit 📣

Grateful for this nomination of *The Mary We Forgot* in the category of Religion/Philosophy!

"What I found most refreshing about her book is her genuine love of our amazing Jesus, and how she was able to demonstrate that Mary Magdalene’s relationship with Jesus helps all believers, men and women, better know our Lord." @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social www.cbeinternational.org/resource/boo...

"In 'forgetting' Mary for who she was, we have also 'undervalued' her as 'the first witness to the resurrection, and overlooked, particularly in the Western church, as the 'apostle to the apostles,’'." @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social www.thebanner.org/mixed-media/...

📖 Read Chapter 1 of #knowingandbeingknown for free. Only 15 days until the May 6th release. 😎 Have you preordered? @ivpress.bsky.social www.ivpress.com/Media/Defaul...

Today, I walked down the street where Zürich reformer Zwingli once lived to the Theology Faculty at the University of Zürich. At the invitation of the Reformation Institute, I taught a class on the Reformation and the Bible. Students were a delight, and I left just glowing #ILoveBibles Thankful!
