Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

Joanna Weaver

If you've ever found yourself drowning in lists and projects, if you've ever felt frustrated with everything you are doing, or if you somehow feel that your crazy, busy life is getting in the way of a personal relationship with Jesus, than this book is a must-have. Each chapter focuses on different aspects of the stories. The book has study guides in the back that go with each chapter.

I've read this book twice now and both times have been incredibly impressed. The author clearly identifies with the subject. Her writing is straight forward, but not abrasive. She uses the different passages in the Bible and creates a feeling of comradery between the reader and the two sisters. There are parts of both of them that we can relate to and the author points out, using Christ as our example, how we can take the best of both sisters and become more like Him. I can't recommend this book enough.
