Abstract

This article looks at the four gospel accounts of the resurrection experiences of Mary Magdalene and sees in them stories of imaginative responses to the challenges of transformative mission. It shows how each story offers different emphases on relating to the other. It also argues that missionaries should not seek to stay in the centre of the story but be ready to disappear from the scene when their job is done.
