    A comparision between our actions around Christmas to that of Mary and Martha.

    How many of you have braved the malls and stores through the busy times this Christmas season? I think you will agree that it can be a very hectic and stressful time for both our bodies and for our checkbooks. I have heard a number of stories from people telling me this. A lady was overheard ...read more

    Focusing on our purpose as a church

    Friday, July 14, 2006 Focus#2 LUKE 10 Binoculars last week and we found out they were out of focus, and inward correction was needed.

    Wisdom lies in knowing when to be busy and when to be reflective. Both Martha and Mary wanted the affirmation of Jesus. But it always comes by grace alone.

    Author Sam Keen, in his provocative little book called Apology for Wonder, tells us the lesson he learned as young boy swimming in the Indian River inlet on the Delaware coast.

    Many times we take a look at another person, and for us we look at Scripture, and say that our loved one embodies so much of what was expressed by another. For ******, she has been described as Martha, one of Jesus’ dear friends, from Luke 10.

    FUNERAL FOR “A MARTHA” ************* MAY 17, 2010 SCRIPTURE John 14:1-4 "Do not let your hearts be troubled.

    We are called to be a balanced Church. We must achieve a balance between service and worship. The story of Martha and Mary focuses on finding that balance.

    There was a person who lost their daily planner awhile back. It contained all of their contact addresses, their calendar, to-do list, and monthly reminders. It even held their personal credit card information and expenses for the past year. They were devastated. Not as much for the loss of their ...read more

    Just like a rip-current in the ocean can pull us away from shore, we must deepen our relationship with Jesus so that the things of this world do not pull us away from God.

    We hear the stories every summer about people who are enjoying a time at the beach only to end up getting caught in the strong grasp of a rip current. These strong channels of water in the water can drag swimmers away from the shore with alarming speed and strength. The same is true for a ...read more

    Martha, Martha, You're Not So Bad

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 2, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 20,531 views

    Often overshadowed by her sister Mary, Martha is often marginalized as an undesirable example of for disciples. However, when examined through the lens of scripture and not popular Christian books, Martha shines through as an example for all godly women.

    When I survey the women of the New Testament, I find some remarkable women of faith, Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38) is the first to come to mind. But, there are others, such as Joanna, Susanna and Mary Magalene (Luke 8:1-3). Later on, I read about Priscilla who, along with her husband, ...read more

    In Prioritizing the Word of God, we must be : 1) Devoted to the Best (Luke 10:38-39), without settling for and being: 2) Distracted from the Good (Luke 10:40-42).

    The word “priority” is a commonly used one today. Books and seminars purporting to teach people how get their lives in order by understanding and setting their priorities abound. As people’s lives become more frenetic, frantic, disjointed, and disconnected, they battle to stay ...read more
