An invitation for every woman who feels she isn't
godly enough...isn't loving enough...isn't doing enough
The life of a woman today isn't really all that different from that of Mary
and Martha in the New Testament. Like Mary, you long to sit at the Lord's
feet...but the daily demands of a busy world just won't leave you alone.
Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him...yet you struggle
with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy.
Then comes Jesus, right into the midst of your busy Mary/Martha life-and he
extends the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters of
Bethany. Tenderly he invites you to choose "the better part"-a
joyful life of "living-room" intimacy with him that flows
naturally into "kitchen service" for him.
How can you make that choice? With her fresh approach to the familiar Bible
story and its creative, practical strategies, Joanna shows how all of us-Marys
and Marthas alike-can draw closer to our Lord, deepening our devotion,
strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy.
