People Who Viewed This Viewed

The life of a woman today isn't really all that different from that of Mary and Martha in the New Testament. Like Mary, you long to sit at the Lord's feet... but the daily demands of a busy world just won't leave you alone. Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him... yet you struggle with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy.

Then comes Jesus, right into the midst of your busy Mary/Martha life and he extends the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters of Bethany. Tenderly he invites you to choose the better part of a joyful life of "living-room" intimacy with him that flows naturally into "kitchen service" for him.

How can you make that choice? With her fresh approach to the familiar Bible story and its creative, practical strategies, Joanna shows how all of us-Marys and Marthas alike-can draw closer to our Lord, deepening our devotion, strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy.

    I ordered 10 copies for a study group. It took over 2 weeks for them to arrive. Books were ok but the shipping box was tattered and had been retaped by the post office.

  • I'm Martha and Mary

    This book was the one that I was looking for. I wanted a book that would teach me about religion since it has been over 40 years since I received my communion but in a way that pertains to today's struggles. It did both! It got me to look for other books that deal in religion in that matter. It was not only interesting but very enjoyable to read.

  • Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

    We are reading this book in our Bible Study class at church and it has turned some of our members who do not read into readers. I'm not one for non-fiction but I love the way this book talks about dealing with worry and stress. It is great for a group setting or an individual setting.

  • Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

    This book was recommended to me. I am studying it with 4 other women and purchased 5 additional copies for the 5 signicant women in my life. It is one of the best books I've read EVER. Joanna Weaver does an excellent job of painting word pictures that speak volumes. In these days of "busyness" she calls us to slow down and "be with God" rather than wear ourselves out "doing for Him." Even my husband is enjoying the book and finding his life changed for the better.

  • Having a Mary Heart in A Martha World

    A book that gets to the crux of the Christian life for women: balance. We all need it, we all want, but few of us actually feel balanced, even if we "look" it. Worship and service are not mutually exclusive, but finding the blend honors God and invigorates us can be a real challenge. This book is a big help in learning how to be there, with practical helps, funny stories, and a well done study guide for small groups or just individual thought.
