Mary, Martha, and Me by Camille Fronk Olson

Subtitle: Seeking the One Thing That is Needful
Published in 2006. 134 pages.



For as long as I can remember, I've had a love-hate relationship with the brief account of Mary and Martha recorded in Luke 10:38-42. A number of years ago, I heard Camille Fronk Olson speak on the topic and found her insights helpful. I was excited, therefore, to see that she had published an entire book on the topic. Unfortunately, I didn't find the book as helpful as I remember her comments being - perhaps I'm just in a different place at this point. Overall, however, I liked the book and am glad that I read it. I will very likely read parts of it again.
