How do we know that sitting at Jesus' feet is important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Sitting at Jesus' feet signifies humility and an eagerness to hear His word, which is essential for spiritual growth.

Sitting at Jesus' feet, as exemplified in the story of Mary and Martha, represents a position of humility and submission before Christ. It is an acknowledgment that the words of Jesus are more important than our activities or efforts. In Luke 10:39, Mary chose to sit at His feet and hear His word, which Jesus identified as the 'one thing needful.' This posture allows believers to absorb His teachings, grow in faith, and understand their reliance on His grace. It highlights the necessity of prioritizing spiritual nourishment over worldly distractions.
