Part 1: How Ruth Saves Us From the Affordable Housing Crisis - By Caleb Ratzlaff Part 2: Mother Mary Revolutionary - By Rosilee Sherwood Part 3: We are Saved by the Work of Christ’s Grandmothers - By Caleb Ratzlaff By Rosilee Sherwood “Mother Mary” is easily seen as a meek and mild, passive figure who is a symbol of purity and faith. Upon closer inspection, I believe “revolutionary” should be added to the list of titles that this iconic woman has earned. Jesus’ genealogy lists five women, including his mother, Mary. Like the four other women in Jesus’ family tree, Mary challenges her status as a worthless “outsider”, fighting to dismantle the system of injustice that deems her worthy only of death.
