$30,000 Pedicure - a podcast by Russel Yoak

Pastor Rus Says

 

Welcome to the sermon podcast for March 13th 2016 from First Lutheran in Shelby Ohio with Pastor Rus

 

Ever had a $30,000 pedicure?  Would you get one?  How would you react if someone you knew got one...what if it was Jesus?  

 

 

Six days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany, the home of Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

12:2 There they gave a dinner for him. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those at the table with him.

12:3 Mary took a pound of costly perfume made of pure nard, anointed Jesus' feet, and wiped them with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

12:4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was about to betray him), said,

12:5 "Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?"

12:6 (He said this not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief; he kept the common purse and used to steal what was put into it.)

12:7 Jesus said, "Leave her alone. She bought it so that she might keep it for the day of my burial.

12:8 You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me."
