Mary Magdalene - Her Legacy In Scripture

Read Mark 15:33 – 41.

1. What do you think Mary Magdalene thought and felt as she heard Jesus cry out to God (verse 34)?

2. How might she have reacted when she saw him dead?

3. Why do you think she went to the cross to watch him die? Why not spare herself that?

Read John 20:1 – 16.

4. Why do you suppose Mary didn’t recognize Jesus until he spoke her name?

5. How sure are you that Jesus knows your name (Isaiah 43:1)?

6. How would you compare your love for Jesus to Mary’s? What feeds or dampens your love for him?
