We begin at the home of Mary & Martha and consider the way Jesus sees and names Martha's condition, invites her to intimacy, and gently corrects her desire to boss her sister. We discuss Paul's masterful doxological and pastoral approach. We note the devastating backdrop for the lament of Psalm 52 and the powerful prophetic message of Amos and how it can speak to us as we witness injustice and suffering.
