DisciplesNet Worship #636: Proper 11 (Cobb 7.17.2022)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Much of the Christian life is about service to others, but what of those times when our desire to serve becomes simple busyness? When does busyness rob us of the very engagement we are seeking to have? Pastor Anita speaks to us from Luke 10:38-42, the story of Mary and Martha, to help us to recognize our need to sit at Jesus' feet and listen.
This worship service is 28 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a few favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

DisciplesNet Worship #476: Pentecost+6 (D.Phelps 07.21.2019)

to watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Martha doesn't get the credit her sister Mary gets. It's true that Mary chose the better path as Jesus said, but does that mean we reject Martha's "getting the work done for hospitality's sake" entirely. Rev. Dean Phelps takes us through the account in Luke 10:38-42 and shows us why we might respect Martha's way quite a bit more.
Join us for 29 minutes of prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, preaching as well as communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

DisciplesNet Worship #312, “Martha, dear Martha” (Dean Phelps 07.17.2016)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

If Jesus came to your home, might you be more like Mary, wanting to sit at Jesus' feet and soak up all he had to teach, or Martha, wanting to get have everything just right, so being a worthy host of Jesus? Which was the better way? Our worship today, 26 minutes long, looks at this issue in the days of Mary and Martha, and in our times today. Our text comes from Luke 10:38-42, and we are honored to have guest preacher Rev. Dean Phelps bringing our sermon. Continue reading →
