Mary (the Sister of Martha and Lazarus)

Pastor Chris tells a story of a group of men troubled by their female pastor's lack of fishing skills. Inviting her along, they witness her walking on water to retrieve her jacket, but still find fault. This leads to reflecting on Mary of Bethany's extravagant act of pouring expensive perfume on Jesus. Despite criticism, Jesus commends her, recognizing her heart of worship. The sermon emphasizes worship as the foundation for service, drawing parallels to Jesus' sacrificial love. The message urges believers to prioritize worship, embodying childlike wonder and devotion, regardless of others' opinions. It concludes with a prayer for renewed hearts of worship and acknowledgment of Jesus' worthiness.
