But espousing the marriage between Jesus and Mary Magdalene created a personal crisis for this Catholic scholar. In The Goddess in the Gospels, the author tells how she was guided in her personal search and her ever-deepening study of the New Testament and gematria--number coding of the Greek alphabet--by an incredible series of synchronicities. It was this mirroring of inner and outer worlds that revealed the Sacred Marriage of male and female--the hieros gamous--and led to her personal redemption. \"This book by Margaret Starbird will raise new questions, challenge preconceived ideas, and spark controversy.
