Jesus stops by for dinner, and suddenly everyone’s got opinions. This week, Bob, Eric, Abby, and Erick dive into Luke 10:38–42 (the classic Mary and Martha showdown) and explore what hospitality really means—spiritually, socially, and awkwardly.

Expect:

• A spicy takedown (and redemption) of performative hosting
• A surprising theological defense of love languages
• Jazz riffs on Jesus, chores, and whether Martha just needed a podcast

Also featuring: plastic-covered furniture, Lazarus Lincoln, sacramental sarcasm, and possibly too much kombucha.

Pull up a chair (not the nice one), and let’s talk Bible.

This Week's Reading:

Luke 10:38–42 (NRSVue)

[38] Now as they went on their way, he entered a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him. [39] She had a sister named Mary, who sat at Jesus’s feet and listened to what he was saying. [40] But Martha was distracted by her many tasks, so she came to him and asked, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her, then, to help me.” [41] But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things, [42] but few things are needed—indeed only one. Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be taken away from her.”

Hosted by Pastor Eric Damon and Pastor Bob Schaefer.
