In Matthew 26:1-13, Jesus has just concluded his public ministry and has returned to the friendly confines of a friend’s home in Bethany. While there, a woman pours out expensive perfume on him in an act of love and adoration. While his disciples aren’t sure this was such a great use of valuable perfume, Jesus praises the act. Friend of Exeter Valley Church Lori Riley, shows us how this act isn’t a waste, it’s worship.
