Mary living in a Martha world

Posted: January 3, 2008 in church, life

“American Christianity is more like busy Martha than like pensive Mary, sitting at the feet of Jesus. It expands more in breadth than in depth. It is often carried on like a secular business, and ina mechanical or utilitarian spirit. It lacks the beautiful enamel of deep fervor and heartiness.” Philip Schaff Luke 10:38-40
