Luke 10:38-42 38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 40 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 the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Possible Pathways to God Contemplative Pathway Activist/Doer Pathway Creation Pathway Music Pathway Relational Pathway Intellectual Pathway Art, Rituals, and Symbols, Caregiver Sense, etc. Pathway Some Pathway Cautions Don't the pathway of others Don't the pathway of others Follow down your pathway Questions for personal reflection and/or Discipleship Group: Opener: When in this last week did you feel most alive?
