Facing Unholy Expectations | Rev. Wil Cantrell

As Jesus is journeying to Jerusalem, he stops to visit Mary and Martha. Martha assumes the traditional female role in the household by preparing the meal. However, Mary breaks cultural conventions by sitting at Jesus’ the feet - the posture of a disciple seeking to learn which was a role reserved for males. By praising Mary, Jesus teaches us that we must learn to place seeking God above the pressure to conform to unholy cultural expectations.

Scripture - Luke 10:38-42
