Could the "Da Vinci" Code be right? Margaret Starbird's theological beliefs were profoundly shaken when she first encountered the suggestion that Jesus Christ was married and that his bloodline survived in Western Europe. Shocked by such heresy, this Roman Catholic scholar, who has a M.A. degree in comparative literature and further post-graduate study at Vanderbilt Divinity School, set out to refute it, but instead discovered new and compelling evidence for the existence of the lost bride of Jesus-- the Mary who anointed him with precious unguent of nard from her alabaster jar.Starbird's research traces the origin and extent of the heresy of the Holy Grail, whose medieval adherents believed that Jesus was married and that his wife and child emigrated to Gaul, fleeing persecutions of the Christian community in Jerusalem. Numerous legends, works of art, and artifacts of medieval Europe clearly reflect a widespread "alternative Christianity" brutally suppressed by the Inquisition beginning in the 13th Century. The heresy miraculously survived in an underground stream of esoteric devotees of the "sacred feminine" incarnate in Mary Magdalene--the artists, artisans, poets and alchemists of medieval and renaissance Europe. In her provocative book, The Woman With The Alabaster Jar, Starbird draws her conclusions from an extensive study of history, heraldry, symbolism, medieval art, mythology, psychology, and the Bible itself. Her books contain evidence from medieval art and artifacts of the heresy of the Holy Grail. Her inevitable conclusion is that "sacred union" of Jesus and Magdalene was originally at the heart of the Christian Gospels. Join Margaret as she shares her incredible insights into the story of Jesus and Mary Magdalene.Unity of Phoenix Presents:Margaret StarbirdMary Magdalene and the Holy GrailMonday, May 2, 20057:00 pmTickets are $25 per person and are available through The Divine Idea Bookstore 602-978-3337 or on-line at <a href="http://www.unityphx.org" title="test" target="_blank">www.unityphx.org</a>Unity of Phoenix1500 E.
