Episode 19: There’s Something About Mary
Scripture: John 12:1-11
Description: The anointing of Jesus takes place in all four Gospels, one of the few scenes to show up in all of them. What was so significant about this story? Is it the action taken, or the woman who cares for Jesus in such a tender and profound way?
Questions to consider if you are using this podcast for study:
- How many anointings do you think took place in Jesus’ lifetime? Why do you think that? Does it significantly change the story if there are one, two, or three?
- Why do you think this story is remembered in all four Gospels? What is significant about how it is remembered (ie what details are remembered and what are left out)?
- When have you been displaced in your life? How did you find ways to serve the people who were helping you?
- Have you ever felt disregarded? How does your faith strengthen you in those moments?
- What did you learn about the biblical Marys in this episode? When you think about these Marys, what is most meaningful to you about them?
