Mary of Bethany stands alone in the Gospels. She was the friend of Jesus, sharer of His secrets. She abides, uninhibited and limitless, an eternal emblem of adoration of Jesus. Mary received from Jesus what no other player in the Redemption Story received: His never-ending command that where the gospel is preached, the story of her alabaster jar is to be told. This book proclaims her memorial place with extraordinary insight and reverence, laced with the goal of following this quiet one who was the delight of Jesus into our own . . . ADORATION. Here is a profound gaze at the very human story of two sisters and the stark contrast between what gains God and what loses Him. Martha Kilpatrick quietly and lovingly dispels the hype and reveals the secret of true worship. Now available in both print and digital formats.
This books is sooo important, it's very easy to read. Really takes a heart that is yielded to the Lord to receive this message but what a treasure it is to openhearted!! Gets bact to the simplicity of what loving God is.

I have been so completely impacted by this book. My heart has sought the Lord, yet I have yearned to love Him more. Adoration has touched my very passion for Jesus, and called me higher, to a place of surrender and focus. In a world that demands fast paced activity to meet deadline and standard. And/or to please ones self or others, a simple life and our true Reward get lost. Martha writes in this book about Mary of Bethany and all those around her, but more than that she writes in a style that causes the heart to meditate on the very Jesus Mary focused upon. A book for everyone, men as well as women. I recommend it very highly, for all who would love Him or love Him more.
