Listening and Doing - July 20, 2025

We all know the story of Martha and Mary – the two sisters Jesus visited. Martha invited Jesus in and shared hospitality by fixing a meal. Her sister Mary sat quietly at Jesus’s feet, with the disciples. This story is often presented as an “either/or” – which one did the right thing? Are you a Martha or a Mary? But what if there’s no right one and wrong one in this story? There are important things we can learn from both of these sisters, about hospitality and listening and putting God above all else. We will explore these themes in worship this week.  See you Sunday, in person or online.
