On a recent episode of the “Your Radical Truth Podcast,” hosted by Margaret Mary O’Connor, listeners were treated to an enlightening discussion with Rita L. Houlihan. Rita has used her three decades of experience in sales and change strategy consulting to bring a unique perspective to her advocacy work centered on Mary Magdalene within the Catholic Church. Armed with a BA in Psychology and Philosophy from Newton College of the Sacred Heart (now Boston College) and an MA in Educational Psychology from New York University, plus 10 years of reading Mary Magdalene research, Rita’s journey into the realm of biblical scholarship and advocacy has been both profound and purpose-driven.
At the heart of Rita’s mission lies a deep commitment to restoring the historical memory of early Christian women leaders, with a special emphasis on Mary Magdalene. Rita serves on the board of directors for FutureChurch, an organization with the mission to “seek changes that will provide all Roman Catholics the opportunity to participate fully in Church life, ministry, and governance.
During the podcast, Rita and Margaret delve into the often-maligned character of Mary Magdalene within the context of Catholic history. They reflect on the centuries-old misinterpretations and distortions of Mary’s story, particularly highlighting the efforts of influential figures like St. Augustine and Jerome, whose writings perpetuate harmful stereotypes about women in Christianity.
