The Holy Communion on the Sixth Sunday after Pentecost: July 20, 2025, 9:30 am


As we heard last week, life in the Kingdom of God is a life committed to acts of compassion for the neighbor. Martha exemplifies this servant life by providing hospitality for Jesus in her home. But she fails to see the opportunity provided to her: to hear the word of Jesus and, in so doing, receive hospitality from him. Life in the Kingdom of God involves sitting, like Mary, at the feet of Jesus in the position of a disciple, and Martha, too, is invited to participate in the life of discipleship.
