St. Martha (29 July): Dragon Slayer & Loved by Our Lord

About this sermon

St. Martha is often remembered as the busy hostess in the Gospel—but her life after Christ's Resurrection is one of the most extraordinary in Christian tradition. In this sermon, discover the remarkable story of St. Martha of Bethany, sister of St. Mary Magdalene and St. Lazarus, who welcomed Our Lord into her home, stood faithfully at the foot of the Cross, journeyed to southern France after the Ascension, evangelized countless souls, subdued the legendary dragon known as the Tarasque, raised the dead through the power of Christ, founded a religious community, and received a glorious vision of Our Lord at the hour of her death. Learn why St. Martha is one of Christianity's greatest examples of faithful service, hospitality, humility, and complete trust in Jesus Christ. Whether you are a homemaker, mother, father, religious, or simply striving for holiness in everyday life, St. Martha reminds us that ordinary duties done with extraordinary love become the path to sanctity. "Do God's Will, and thus we will become saints."
