About this episode
This episode explores the contrasting devotions of Judas and Mary in Mark 14:1-11 and their implications for discipleship.
It’s important to remember that the Gospels are both the inerrant word of God and a carefully constructed narrative full of dramatic contrasts. Nowhere is this more evident than in Mark 14 and the contrast between Judas the disciple and Mary the sister of Jesus’ friend Lazarus. They are both totally devoted to…different things! This sermon we’ll explore the differences between them, the difference it makes to their relationship with Jesus, and the example each are to us as Jesus’ disciples today.
