Episode Synopsis
WEEK 45.5: 14 As soon as she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she didn’t know it was Jesus.15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?”Thinking he was the gardener, she replied, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I will get him.”16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.”She turned and said to him in Aramaic, “Rabbouni” (which means Teacher).17 Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold on to me, for I haven’t yet gone up to my Father. Go to my brothers and sisters and tell them, ‘I’m going up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”18 Mary Magdalene left and announced to the disciples, “I’ve seen the Lord.” Then she told them what he said to her.SJTJ s a year-long contemplative journey through the Gospel of John. We invite you into Scripture, reflection, and intentional practices to help you pause, listen, and respond to God’s love in transformative ways. Weekdays are 10-12-minute devotionals to help you abide in the presence of Jesus and the Word of God, learn by studying the Scriptures, and go with intention to love the world. Weekends we release a short prayer of examen reflecting on the previous week and/or a longer teaching podcast that more deeply explores the themes and implications of John. Occasionally we have an excursus episode, which is basically an extra episode addressing listener questions or certain topics that require extended exploration.DONATE TO THE WILD WAY.
