We all think we know the story so very well. Martha is busy in the kitchen whilst Mary is listening to Jesus. Martha gets annoyed and asks Jesus to get Mary to help. Jesus says no.
But, is this just a story about busyness versus piety? Could there be something else going on? We shall find out as we reflect on Luke 10.38-end.
We've also go a little bit of news about the church re-opening (but please don't get too excited as it's not quite yet) plus the answers to Friday's Brain of the Week.
