This 6th Sunday after Pentecost, Pastor Ollie Bergh reflects on the familiar story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10 and the often-misunderstood debate between prayer and service. But what if the point isn't choosing between being a "Mary" or a "Martha," but rather recognizing the astonishing gift of Christ's presence among us? Drawing from Colossians, Psalm 139, and the Prayer of the Day, we're reminded that the fullness of God in Christ is not far off—but closer than we imagine. Even amid life's distractions, the better part—sitting at Jesus's feet—is still offered to us today. Tune in as we consider how to cultivate deeper awareness, hold our thoughts captive to Christ, and treasure his Word above all else.
