One Thing Is Needed: Mary, Martha, and the Power of Presence

from Draycote and Leam Valley Benefice · host Phil Price

In a world that rewards hustle, Jesus invites us to stop. This episode reflects on the familiar story of Mary and Martha — two sisters, one house, and a surprising lesson about what really matters.Whether you're a lifelong Martha, constantly busy and serving others, or someone longing to sit at Jesus’ feet like Mary, this conversation explores how we can be more present — with God, with each other, and even with ourselves.Expect honesty, a bit of humour, and a fresh take on a Gospel moment that’s both comforting and confronting.🕊️ Scripture: Luke 10:38–42💭 Theme: Presence over performance
