Pastor David Burgess explores the story of Martha and Mary to show how we often become distracted from what matters most - sitting at the feet of Jesus. He examines how our overwhelming responsibilities and busy schedules can pull us away from the "one necessary thing."

• We all experience seasons of feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities and to-do lists
• Martha welcomed Jesus into her home but became distracted with serving while Mary sat at Jesus' feet
• Martha's complaint to Jesus reveals her distraction and anxiety about many things
• Jesus gently but firmly rebukes Martha, showing that Mary had chosen "the good portion"
• The "one thing necessary" is prioritizing time with Jesus above all other responsibilities
• Even good things like service can become distractions from our relationship with Jesus
• The subtle sin of distraction can be as damaging as more obvious sins
• We need to intentionally fight through distractions to sit at Jesus' feet
• Jesus calls us to let go of control, comparison, and allow him to interrupt our plans
• The invitation is to lay down burdens and find rest at the feet of Jesus

Come sit at the feet of Jesus and find the good portion that cannot be taken away from you. Join us in choosing the one necessary thing amidst life's many distractions.
