Mary.jpgOur friend, L.L. Barkat, was inspired to reflect on Mary and it led to her thinking it would be good to give a copy of our Mary book (The Real Mary: Why Evangelical Christians Can Embrace the Mother of Jesus
) away, and then she decided to open up comments on her blog to reflections on Mary …

Well, it almost got out of hand and folks were adding reflections from all over. There are links at the links following to all the posts from all over the blog world. L.L. Barkat posted once and then a second time herself.
I want to thanks those good folks, and L.L. Barkat especially, for drawing attention to the most neglected figure in the Gospels for most Protestants: Mary.
By the way, The Real Mary is now out in Portuguese.
