    Martha and Mary were sisters. They were both close friends of Jesus but they interacted with him, served him and worship him in different ways.

    Do we work for God? Or with God? Martha teaches us a powerful lesson, she had Jesus in her house, but her ministry cumbered her, and she missed an opportunity of being at Jesus’ feet.

    This message followed up one on the Biblical Bridal Paradigm, and reflected on the motivation of living and participating in ministry out of love.

    (Opened with a homemade "YouTube" video to the Toby Mac hit, "Made to Love") Last week we explored our love relationship with God. This idea of a “holy romance” through such long standing hymns of the faith as “And Can It Be” and “My Saviour’s Love” and “My Jesus I Love Thee.” This week, it is a ...read more

    A slightly different twist on the familiar story of Mary and Martha. Using an analogy of Kentucky Fried Chicken, how do we act when life treats us to chicken wings? Have faith in God because He is bigger than our problems.

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, when was the last time you brought home a family-size bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken? I imagine more people will be buying those again since KFC announced they no longer use partially hydrogenated fats for frying. What portion do you usually choose from the ...read more

    This is for people who are searching for something in their life and they are unsure of what it is.

    Did you know that you were a “searcher”? That’s also the way the Bible describes the human condition - our condition - yours and mine. We are searchers, on the move, wandering and looking. The Old Testament is filled with marvelous stories of searchers. Abraham and Sarah left their home to ...read more

    If we put Jesus first, then others, and then ourselves, we will be able to spend time at his feet, learning his Word in our lives. Otherwise, we become like Martha in today’s Gospel passage: busy, but not blessed.

    Other Scriptural passages: Genesis 18:1-10a(10b-14) Colossians 1:21-29 Psalm 15 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

    The point here is not that Martha’s activities are bad. The choice Jesus discusses with Martha is between something that is good and something that is better. Life is full of tough choices, and Jesus is addressing the relative merit of good activities her

    In life we are often distracted by small disappointments, and we forget the innumerable blessings we receive from the Lord.

    This message focuses on the story of Mary and Martha and how moms are called on to make the right choices in raising children and in their own spiritual walk. This message affirms the role of motherhood and is preached in a very positive way.
