National Geographic Special: The Story of Mary
Format: Magazine (Special Issue)
Pages: 112
Date of Release: 2025
The Story of Mary: From the Biblical World to Today is a compelling National Geographic special issue that explores one of the most influential and enduring figures in human history. Blending history, faith, art, and culture, this richly researched publication presents Mary not only as a sacred icon, but also as a real woman of first-century Galilee, shaped by poverty, Roman rule, and the everyday challenges of motherhood.
Through historical analysis and devotional traditions, the magazine examines Mary’s role as the Mother of God, her global spiritual significance, and the powerful devotion inspired by Marian apparitions across the world, including Medjugorje and Kibeho. It also traces how Mary’s image evolved over centuries—from an imperial figure to a tender symbol of compassion, resilience, and maternal love across cultures and religions.
The issue also addresses long-debated interpretations of Mary Magdalene, exploring her historical identity, her name’s meaning, and her role as a disciple rather than a misrepresented penitent figure. Featuring insightful articles, striking photography, and expert perspectives, this special issue offers a nuanced, thought-provoking journey through belief, history, and symbolism.
