Don't Worry, Be Anxious
from Elisha's Bears: Exploring Faith, Baptists, and the Bible · host Danny Chisholm
Stress is a real problem for us. It keeps us from "being where our feet are" and appreciating who we are and the people around us. In this episode, we listen in on a conversation between Jesus and Martha concerning her frustration with her sister Mary. This beautiful moment is a template on how worry leads to anger and being distracted from what's truly important. We take our cues on what's important by what Jesus says and does. There are times we need to be like Mary, and times to be like Martha. Jesus also affirms women and their place in his ministry by what he does (and doesn't do) regarding Martha's criticism of Mary.
