1. He Choose Nails, Max Lucado
2. Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, Joanne Weaver
3. A Beautiful Fight, Gary Thomas
The vote was almost annyonomous for "Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World," by Joanne Weaver. This book can be purchased at any Christian book store and most likely in Wal-mart or Target too. Amazon.com has the best price for you internet savey individuals out there. Here is a breif description for the up coming March book selection.
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"---a joyful life of "living-room" intimacy with him that flows naturally into "kitchen service" for him.
So I hope you can grab a copy and join us for a breif discussion of our February book (yes, it was a beast of a book,...) and some fellowship time to kick off our next book and enjoy a new recipe!
