The Also Called Podcast! In today’s episode, we'll meet two writers from our soon-to-be-released book, The Other Disciples. Today, we’re diving into the perspective shift of the busybody, Martha, the seventh disciple from the book, written by Cathi Palmer. And her sister, Mary of Bethany’s anger, our eighth seeker, written by Mia Burke.
Join us as we discover who they were, their remarkable experiences, Martha’s new way of considering Jesus’ observation of her, and Mary’s response to her disillusionment with Jesus in a situation, and consider what their stories offer us today. Get ready for the journey into the heart of grateful and surrendered followers—let’s get started!
