    The woman who anointed Christ regardless of what others knew or thought about her, and her act of love is memorialized by Christ. I believe that scripture shows us this woman has a name -- Mary the sister of Martha and Lazarus.

    Introduction Surely the text couldn’t have said a donkey. A white stallion, even a Camel, I’d take the old gray mare before a donkey. It’s pretty amazing don’t you think? The first truly public acknowledgment of Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah and he comes, as predicted in a way that seems, ...read more
