Jennifer Powell McNutt

To any who may be interested in our MA program in the future, reach out! We are thriving and growing and dedicated to the formation and mentoring of students in faith and academic excellence.

I love, loved time with these exceptional students who came from all over the US and some from Asia and Africa. This week, we laughed, we prayed, we probed the past taking us through all the branches of the church across space and time. New insight, questions, and interests were formed.

Wrapped up a marvelous week of teaching the intensive/hybrid course, Global Church History - a class I’ve been developing for Wheaton College Divinity School online and in person the last 2 years.

Really proud of this piece I wrote for Mockingbird Magazine!

It’s being featured today as the church remembers Mary Magdalene.

The First Apostle Resources for a deeper study on Mary Magdalene's feast day

July 22 is the feast of Mary Magdalene. Why was she the “apostle to the apostles”? Also, I feature reaources from MM scholar @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/kelleyma...

Wow! Amazing, Jon. I hope to visit Tokyo someday. What a gift that must have been.

What a special place!

We are back at HoneyRock, Wheaton College’s camp in the Northwoods of WI, where I’m serving as Camp Pastor for a couple weeks preaching and leading devotionals for staff.

Camp was a pivotal part of my faith journey as a kid so it’s such a privilege to serve in this way.

I just received my contributor copies of the new issue of The Mockingbird, The Law & Gospel. Honored to be among this group of talented writers!

Check out my article, “She Who Hangs Out in Cemeteries.” aka #marymagdalene #mockingbird #themaryweforgot

Too good!!

Talk about thoughtful! I wasn’t able to attend the awards ceremony in Nashville, where my book was a finalist for ECPA Book of the year. In its place, I received this celebratory letter highlighting the recognition of *The Mary We Forgot* Brazos Press. #honored #encouraged Next book in the works!

Thank you!

Some news!

I recently accepted an invitation to be a Senior Fellow in the The Center for Pastor Theologians. I’m grateful for this community of ministry leaders and scholars, and the ways our gatherings have enriched my writing and speaking.

Book Review: The Mary We Forgot: What the Apostle to the Apostles Teaches the Church Today - CBE International Jennifer Powell McNutt’s latest book explores the life and legacy of Mary Magdalene through biblical interpretative methods, Scripture, and Christian history.

"What I found most refreshing about her book is her genuine love of our amazing Jesus, and how she was able to demonstrate that Mary Magdalene’s relationship with Jesus helps all believers, men and women, better know our Lord."

The Mary We Forgot: What the Apostle to the Apostles Teaches the Church Today The Official Magazine of the Christian Reformed Church

"In 'forgetting' Mary for who she was, we have also 'undervalued' her as 'the first witness to the resurrection, and overlooked, particularly in the Western church, as the 'apostle to the apostles,’'."

Two Marys at the Cross: The Body Keeps the Score At the crucifixion of Christ, two women experienced the battle of good and evil within their own bodies as lightning flashed above the cross.

This Holy Week I've been reflecting on two of the women who witnessed the death of Christ in a profoundly personal way. I hope my reflections deepen your gratitude for the cross this weekend. With thanks to @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social

Today, I walked down the street where Zürich reformer Zwingli once lived to the Theology Faculty at the University of Zürich. At the invitation of the Reformation Institute, I taught a class on the Reformation and the Bible. Students were a delight, and I left just glowing #ILoveBibles Thankful!

Congratulations to @jpowellmcnutt.bsky.social! We are so excited to see this recognition for The Mary We Forgot!

I’m very honored that *The Mary We Forgot* is an ECPA Christian Book Award Finalist for 2025! Amazing #grateful

Thank you for reading, Jack, and for your support! I’m blessed by your words and glad to be connected to you. I enjoyed zooming with a class at Talbot who read the book. I’m grateful for how the Lord is using the book to bring clarity and encourage others in the faith!

Just had the final edits accepted for my first article in Mockingbird Magazine, and I’m grateful. Can’t wait to share my piece on Mary Magdalene’s Witness.

If you don’t know the magazine it’s exquisitely done: artistic, richly theological, culturally attuned, etc. Highly recommend! mbird.com
