    Was Mary’s annointing of Jesus an extravagant gift or a waste of money?

    Lessons From Martha, Lazarus And Mary

    Martha beavered away ’serving’, Lazarus (a former dead man) had a story to tell and Mary was extravagant in her worship. There are lessons for us in these three characters!

    We find Mary, who was the sister of Lazarus who would give the moon if it were hers to give. Mary gave extravagantly to the Lord.

    We’re turning to John’s Gospel today, which, quite frankly, is a little unnerving for me, as I find John’s Gospel more difficult to deal with than the other three John retells the story of Jesus in such a way that things are rarely as they appear to be.
