Sisters of Lazarus

<p>Martha and Mary the two sisters of Lazarus couldn't be more different.</p><p>Martha the elder is plain and self-conscious; Mary the younger is beautiful. One sees her value only in serving while the other believes her outward appearance is her only asset. Their worlds are turned upside down when Lazarus offers hospitality to an intriguing new teacher named Jesus.</p><p>Paula K. Parker's evocative writing draws readers in allowing them to feel like a fellow guest sharing the sisters' wonder at meeting Jesus and his transforming power.</p>
