Is St. Mary Magdalene the same person as St. Mary of Bethany, the sister of St. Lazarus and St. Martha? Is she the same person as the penitent woman in Luke 7:36-50? Listen to Fr. Matthew Tomeny, MIC, explain what we know about St. Mary Magdalene.
We all know someone who has left the faith and left us heartbroken. But there is hope! With God's grace, the help of the Saints, and your own contribution, their conversion can happen.
Fr. Matthew Tomeny reminds us of one of the most urgent and essential truths Christ ever proclaimed: “If you do not repent, you will all perish” (Luke 13:3). The very first word of Jesus’ public ministry was repent—metanoia in Greek—meaning a complete change of mind and heart. True repentance is not a one-time act but a lifelong transformation. It is the continual turning of the soul toward God, the daily dying to self so that Christ may live in us.
