Are You Too Busy to Sit With Jesus? | The Gospels | Luke 10:38–42

Why is it so easy to stay busy doing things for Jesus while missing time with Jesus himself? What happens when activity replaces intimacy? And what does it look like to choose the “better thing” Jesus speaks about? In today’s episode, Patrick shares how Luke 10:38–42 shows that Jesus values being with him more than being busy for him, and invites us to slow down and sit at his feet.
