Hello,
I hope you are doing well.
I hope you are doing well.
If you are anything like me, you’ve got a lot on your plate at any given time. There’s always something going, isn’t there?
Maybe you’ve thought about hosting Harvest America in your home, but there’s a pesky voice in the back of your mind saying, “No! Not one more thing. I don’t have time for one more thing!” I get that. I really do!
But I want to remind you of a story from the Gospel of Luke. When Jesus came to visit Mary and Martha, Martha was understandably whipping up a feast for Jesus while Mary sat at His feet, listening to what He had to say. Martha got stressed out because Mary wasn’t helping her.

But I want to remind you of a story from the Gospel of Luke. When Jesus came to visit Mary and Martha, Martha was understandably whipping up a feast for Jesus while Mary sat at His feet, listening to what He had to say. Martha got stressed out because Mary wasn’t helping her.
Jesus looked at her and said, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her” (Luke 10:41–42).
A loose paraphrase might be, “Martha, I appreciate a homecooked meal, but there is a time and a place for everything. The time now is just right for Me to talk to you about what really matters in life—and Mary gets that.”
Our greatest danger in life is permitting the urgent things to crowd out the important things.
So I encourage you to pray and think about being a part of this evangelistic outreach on June 11, and see what the Lord shows you as you sit at His feet like Mary did.
And just so you know, hosting Harvest America is actually pretty easy! We’ve got the whole thing planned out for you and will walk you through it, step by step.

I think you’ll be glad you did!
In Christ,
Greg
