<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This book's fresh approach to the familiar Bible stories and its creative, practical strategies are designed to show how readers can draw closer to the Lord, deepening devotion, strengthening service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>With nearly a million copies sold, Joanna Weaver's popular book shows women how to blend intimacy with Jesus and service for Him. </b> <p/> An invitation for every woman who feels she isn't godly enough... isn't loving enough... isn't doing enough. The life of a woman today isn't really all that different from that of Mary and Martha in the New Testament. Like Mary, you long to sit at the Lord's feet... but the daily demands of a busy world just won't leave you alone. Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him... yet you struggle with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy. <p/> Then comes Jesus, right into the midst of your busy Mary/Martha life-and he extends the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters of Bethany. Tenderly he invites you to choose the better part-a joyful life of living-room intimacy with him that flows naturally into kitchen service for him. <p/> How can you make that choice? With her fresh approach to the familiar Bible story and its creative, practical strategies, Joanna shows how all of us -Marys and Marthas alike- can draw closer to our Lord, deepening our devotion, strengthening our service, and doing both with less stress and greater joy. <p/> This book includes a twelve-week Bible study. <p/> Also look for the ten-week DVD study pack companion product to this book, which includes three DVDs and a separate, revised and expanded study guide.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b><i>CBA </i>bestseller</b> <p/>"Often a book fails to live up to its title, but Joanna Weaver's <i>Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World</i> more than lives up to its promise.

That's what it is all about, and Joanna Weaver has found it, described it, and called us to this wonderful, practical work. If you have ever struggled with how you can find one quiet moment while longing for a deep holy communion or if you have been discouraged because neither seems possible, you will be challenged and blessed by<i> Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World</i>!"<br><b><i>-Jan Silvious, author of Foolproofing Your Life<br></i></b><br>"With candor, humor, and passion Joanna Weaver invites us to cultivate a "Mary heart" that delights in time with God and assigns him top priority. Yet she doesn't discard the service-oriented Martha. Instead, she wisely and practically models how to balance the Mary and Martha qualities in us all. I especially appreciate her thoughts on expressing lavish love-to God and to humanity."<br><b><i>-Judith Couchman, Designing a Woman's Life author and seminar leader<br></i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Joanna Weaver</b> is the best-selling author of <i>Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World</i>, <i>Having a Mary Spirit, Lazarus Awakening, </i>and the award-winning gift book <i>With This Ring. </i>Her articles have appeared in such publications as <i>Focus on the Family, Guideposts, </i>and <i>HomeLife. </i>Joanna and her pastor-husband, John, have three children and live in Montana.
