We’ve all heard the story—Martha in the kitchen, Mary at Jesus’ feet. One was doing the right thing, one was too busy and was in the wrong … but what if there’s more to this story than we’ve been taught?
In this episode of Rooted & Resilient, we’re diving into Martha’s world—one full of expectations, distractions, and a quiet ache to be seen.
If you’re a Christian woman over 50, navigating empty nest, divorce recovery, or simply wondering where you fit now that life looks different—this conversation is for you.
This isn’t just biblical commentary. It’s real-life Biblical encouragement for women who’ve lived through some stuff—grief, change, loneliness, and seasons that didn’t go as planned.
What does Martha's story really say to women feeling unappreciated, burned out, or quietly wondering if their faithfulness behind the scenes even matters?
If you’ve been the one holding the family together, carrying responsibilities no one sees, or questioning whether God still has a purpose for you—this episode will speak to your heart.
Because this isn’t a message about doing less—or about doing more. It's about what Jesus sees in you.
So take a deep breath, pour yourself a cuppa, and join me as we explore Martha’s story—maybe in a way you’ve never heard before.
Because friend, you are not invisible, you are not alone, and God isn’t finished with your story yet.
