Episode Description

Continuing our series "Ears to Hear", Kendra Yoder makes her preaching debut with the powerful narrative of Mary and Martha found in Luke 10.

Kendra contrasts the difference between the two sisters approach to Jesus. While Martha is consumed by the burden of hospitality and the desire to prove her worth through labor, Mary chooses the "one thing needed" by listening to Jesus, despite the social risks involved.

Jesus does not demand extravagant service or the fulfillment of rigid cultural expectations; instead, he offers a rhythm of grace that prioritizes relationship over earning merit.
