Luke 10:38-42 – Pentecost 6 (C)
Manage episode 494421944 series 3432363
On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the story of Mary and Martha. One of the important things Jesus emphasizes here in his discussion with Martha is the value of the passive life: true life in God is found not in the activity of service, or life under the law, but in the passivity of hearing. To have the better portion is to be a listener of God's gracious word, not one who strives for obedience.
Show Notes:
What’s New from 1517:
The Impossible Prize: A Theology of Addiction by Donavan Riley
Broken Bonds: A Novel of the Reformation, Book 1 of 2 by Amy Mantravadi
