    Description:

    What is Christianity primarily about? Is it about primarily being the hands and feet of Jesus or listening to Jesus? Is a successful church busy with all sorts of programs, ministries, and outreach endeavors, whereas a mediocre or failing church sits in the pew? In episode #4 of "3 Padres and a Shepherd," we will be taking a closer look into Jesus' interaction with two women: Mary and Martha. We will be asking the question, "Is It O.k. To Be A Pew Sitter?" Even though the story of Mary and Martha is a very simple story, it has vast application in the realm of the church and into the lives of Christians. And so, sit back with Mary and enjoy this 4th Episode! More Episodes: www.3p1s.com

    Apr 25 2024

    Original Air Date: April 24th of 2024

    These proverbs contrast the gracious woman who gains honor with the ruthless man who gains only wealth, emphasizing that kindness, integrity, and righteousness lead to life and prosperity, while the pursuit of evil leads to destruction. This passage also highlights the importance of generosity, stating that those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. It warns against deceit and the hoarding of wealth, promoting instead a lifestyle of generosity and righteousness that ultimately benefits both the individual and the community.

    The Rev. Dr. Matthew Richard, pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Minot, ND, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Proverbs 11:16-31.
