Servants & Stewards - When Heave Served Earth - Mary

Adult Ministries Pastor Ron King continues our series focusing on the women found in Jesus's genealogy. And today, we're with Mary.Mary isn't perfect or larger-than-life. She's faithful. Thoughtful. Willing. And honestly, a little overwhelmed — like most of us would be. She's trying to trust God without fully understanding how things will turn out.This is a story about grace, not performance. About God noticing ordinary faithfulness. About surrender that doesn't come with a full roadmap.If you've ever wondered whether God sees your quiet obedience, or whether saying yes to Him is really worth it, Mary's story speaks directly to that.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on December 21, 2025, at 9:30am.
