In Luke 10:38-42, Martha begins well by welcoming Jesus into her home. Yet things quickly go awry as Martha becomes overwhelmed by her hosting duties and misses out on Christ. Much like Martha, it’s easy to become distracted by many things and miss out on the presence of Christ in our lives. Christ offers a firm, yet gentle correction to Martha, and does the same to us as well – true discipleship prioritizes the presence and word of the Lord above all else. Chandler McCosh teaches.
