Eyes On Jesus - E.44 - No Compromise Radio

In this episode of No Compromise Radio, Pastor Mike explores the biblical narrative of Mary and Martha from Luke 10:38–42 to provide a framework for healthy Christian ministry. Addressing pastors and laypeople alike, Mike warns that losing focus on Jesus leads to "ministry burnout," resentment, and a "pity party" mentality. He contrasts Martha’s "distracted" service with Mary’s "good portion"—the countercultural act of sitting at the Lord's feet as a disciple. By linking this passage to the Great Commandments, the episode argues that while service is necessary, the primary "means of grace" must be prioritized to sustain a life of faith and prevent ministerial frustration.
