What must it have been like to be Mary, from her teenage encounter with an angel, to the awesomeness of realizing her crucified son is alive again? Emily Owen explores these questions through Mary's 'diary', sharing in her trials, her excitements, her challenges, fears and joys. Each chapter begins with a 'diary extract' from Mary's life, which is then beautifully unpacked with a meditation to encourage you to reflect on how that applies today. Each meditation is encouraging yet challenging, and helpful for personal growth. Join Mary on a devotional journey to see the biblical story from a fresh perspective.
