Book Description
From the hills of Missouri to the top of the Twin Towers, and from the Florida swamps to the Brazilian beaches, God has refused to let His daughter get bored. Through life, loss, dreams, and disasters, He has proven His love and faithfulness. Her parents and grandparents taught her by example how to deal with life when it got difficulthow to laugh at the ridiculous and find joy in the simple things. Motherhood brought immeasurable joy, lots of laughter, and pain beyond expression. She had to trust the Lord to give his angels charge over her children to keep them safe through their many escapades, exploits, and accidents, and to hold her faith strong in loss. Rather nave, she often innocently found herself caught up in embarrassing, and sometimes dangerous, situations. She learned to laugh at herself and the messes she got into because crying didnt help! Thanking the Lord for all things, good or bad, became a way of life as a matter of survival. Her familys attempt to build a two-story home in the Florida boonies provided more adventure than she bargained for with alligators, wild hogs, floods, and firesbut also beauty, bounty, and butterflies. Later finding herself essentially abandoned and emotionally lost, she also found she had lost her sense of direction, which led to wandering around in the wilderness until she received a call and life changed once more.

CBA BESTSELLER • More than a million copies sold! An invitation for every woman who’s ever felt she isn’t godly enough, isn’t loving enough, isn’t doing enough. “Easy to read, personal, and well-written with a message much more than surface deep. Joanna probed, challenged, and encouraged me to live day by day as Mary in a Martha world.”—Carole Mayhall, author of Come Walk with Me and Here I Am Again, Lord The life of a woman today isn’t all that different from the lives 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, into the midst of your busy life, to extend the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters from Bethany. Tenderly, he invites you to choose “the better part”—a joyful life of intimacy with him that flows naturally into loving service. With her fresh approach to the familiar Bible story, Joanna Weaver shows how all of us, Marys and Marthas alike, can draw closer to our Lord: deepening our devotion, strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy. This book includes a twelve-week Bible study for individual or group use. A Study Guide and a corresponding ten-session video series on DVD or online are available separately.
