How do we balance the hands of Martha with the heart of Mary?
After facing near-death experiences, the call to live intentionally and be fully present becomes even more profound.
In this episode, we explore what it means to serve with purpose, seek Christ in the everyday, and embrace the gift of each moment. Tune in for a powerful conversation on slowing our pace, being on the Lord's errand and living with purpose.

Poem on Mary & Martha (In the book: "What a Friend We Have in Jesus" by Chieko Okazaki)
"My hands are those" By: Lonnie Severinson
My hands are those of Martha With serving cumbered about
Home duties continue to keep me
So busy my time just runs out
Oh no, I don't belittle these tasks That's very true
For motherhood's important
As is each thing I must do
Still, I long to know the master
To study the words he spake
That I might grow in wisdom And better decisions make
But consumed by physical troubles
As pressures abound and build
My spirit self becomes empty
Though my every moment filled
At these times I desire, as Mary, to choose that good part
Though my hands are the hands of Martha, I am Mary in my heart.
