In this sermon from Mark 14:1-9, Pastor Jim explores the story of a woman (identified as Mary, sister of Lazarus) who anoints Jesus with expensive perfume before his crucifixion. While some criticized her for wasting valuable resources that could have helped the poor, Jesus defends her actions as beautiful and appropriate. The sermon contrasts the hatred of religious leaders plotting Jesus' death with Mary's sacrificial love and devotion to Christ.
