    Jesus has many interactions with the sisters, Mary and Martha, throughout his ministry. What we learn in looking at each of these encounters is that together, the sisters model complete discipleship, learning and living fully with Jesus.

The dinner recounted in this passage immediately followed the raising of Mary and Martha’s brother, ...read more
