Listen "Everything In Between Faith and Works"
Episode Synopsis
THE SECOND SUNDAY IN LENT
Luke 10:38-42
(Mary & Martha host Jesus)
In many translations, Jesus says that “Mary has chosen the better part,” which has been used to create a divide between Mary and Martha. However, in the Greek, Mary has chosen the “good portion,” and Martha’s tasks are called “ministry.” Therefore, perhaps Mary represents our faith, our desire to know God intimately, and Martha represents our good works, our desire to transform the world. Both are needed, and both are good.
