Synopsis :

CHOOSING THE GOOD PORTION tells the story of the OPC through profiles of more than 90 women who sacrificed and served during the last 80 years to help mold the OPC into what it is today. By sharing the stories of these women, we hope to encourage the next generation of OPC women in their service. The book's title comes from the story of Mary and Martha. While Martha sought to serve Jesus and his disciples by preparing a larger meal, Mary appears to have stopped helping Martha to sit at Christ's feet and learn from him. Jesus tells Martha that Mary chose the good portion. We believe the women in this book also chose first to receive from Christ what he teaches and then to apply what they learned in service of his church.
