Some six-figure nard...
Manage episode 336657560 series 2286547
In 2020 Seattle dollars, Mary pours out $100,000 worth of perfume on Jesus’ feet. Why? And when Judas questions her choice, citing how much further those dollars could have gone if given to the poor, doesn’t he have a point? Yep. But come along for this sermonic ride, exploring the honoring of bodies, and averted public shaming, and loving God with one’s all, and the many flavors of scarcity mindset, and Tanya Tucker’s gorgeously defiant “If your heart is in them flowers, bring ‘em on…”
Sermon begins at minute 3:54
John 12:1-8
