She was doing everything right. The cooking, the serving, the hosting — all of it good, all of it important. And Jesus didn't rebuke her for any of it.

But he did tell her she was missing something.

In Luke 10:38-42, we meet Martha — a woman who is working hard, serving faithfully, and slowly coming undone. And when she finally speaks up, Jesus doesn't fix her to-do list. He redirects her heart.

This message is for anyone who has been so busy doing good things that they've drifted from the one thing that matters most. It's for the person who has been in the kitchen for a long time — serving, providing, holding everything together — and hasn't stopped long enough to just be with Jesus.

Big Idea: You can be doing a lot and miss what matters most. The presence of Jesus isn't found when everything else gets done — it's found when you choose to slow down and be with Him.

In this message:

Why busyness — even godly busyness — can become a spiritual danger
The difference between serving Jesus and sitting with Jesus
What Jesus actually said to Martha — and what he didn't say
A practical next step for protecting the one thing that can never be taken away
