Do you ever wonder how the biblical narrative of Mary and Martha can be related to our modern, fast-paced lives? Ever find yourself struggling to balance your academic and spiritual commitments? Well, we're here to help you navigate this. Drawing inspiration from the teachings of Luke 10, we provide a fresh perspective on Mary's decision to sit at Jesus' feet — an act symbolizing the choice of spiritual nourishment over worldly distractions. We also unravel the transformative power of beginning each day with eternity in mind, all the while taking a leaf out of the book of life of the inspiring Dr. O. Palmer Robertson.

But that's not all. We delve deeper into the parallelism between this story and the parable of the Good Samaritan, shedding light on how both narratives emphasize spiritual growth and love for neighbors. We even offer practical advice on how you can, like Mary, spend more time at Jesus' feet, by incorporating regular Bible study and prayer into your daily routine. Wrapping up our discussion, we talk about the invaluable lessons we've learned from Jesus and the dramatic impact these lessons can have on our everyday lives. So, join us in this episode for an enriching spiritual conversation and practical takeaways to fortify your faith walk.

The Bible commands us in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 saying that "In everything, give thanks for this is the will of God concerning you." But is this really possible for you? Is it possible for wives and mothers to give thanks in everything when they are overwhelmed with the seemingly mundane, boring and repetitive household work? Is this perspective of thanksgiving really possible for students who are being weighed down by an academic overload or by the hectic pressure of examinations?

Many of us may consider ourselves as servants of God, but does our driving motivations for our service originate from a true love for God?
