Learning the Better Part

from Sermons at The Episcopal Church of Our Saviour · host The Rev. Br. Richard Edward Helmer

The familiar story of Mary and Martha is just that: about family and experiences we all share.

(The Sixth Sunday after Pentecost (Year C - SC) - The Rev. Br. Richard Edward Helmer) The story of Jesus with Mary and Martha of Bethany appears to have had an outsized impact on early Christian communities. It speaks to familiar patterns of sibling rivalry and the universal challenge of living with others. Martha's frustration is also our own, as is Jesus' invitation to grow into learning the “better part.”
