In this powerful message, we explore one of the most misunderstood stories in the Gospels: Mary and Martha. When Jesus visits their home in Bethany, Martha busies herself with elaborate preparations while Mary simply sits at His feet. Jesus' response to Martha's complaint reveals a stunning truth about what God truly desires from us.

Are you serving Jesus but missing Jesus? Discover why God didn't create you primarily for usefulness, but for something far more beautiful: to know Him and be enjoyed by Him.

In This Episode:

• The real reason Jesus corrected Martha's service
• Why sitting at Jesus' feet isn't passive—it's powerful
• What J.I. Packer teaches about knowing God
• How to prioritize intimacy with God in everyday life
• The ONE thing Jesus says is needed for a fulfilling spiritual life
