• Concept: Based on the story found in Luke 10, two sisters, Martha and Mary, host Jesus and his disciples in their home. Martha cannot get past her focus on tasks to see the real value of this occasion. This tale is a reminder that God loves us for who we are, not what we do.
• Story Origin: An original work of fiction based on the story found in Luke chapter 10.
• Setting: New Testament Israel
• Precept(s):

• Key Bible Verse: Luke 10:38-40 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to Him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to Him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do all the work myself? Tell her to help me!”
