Substack: Stubborn Mercy
We post here!
Our intention on this Substack is to write about how God is revealing love and care for us and our neighbors.
Mary of Bethany - our church’s namesake - lived into defiant hope. She refused to give into the societal pressures that would have removed her from the better part of sitting at Jesus’ feet. She disrupted Judas’ circuit of profitable charitable economics by attentively anointing Jesus’ body for his burial. And she had faith that was willing to confront Jesus with her feelings of abandonment and betrayal at the loss of her brother.
Let us join Mary in her stubborn mercy.
