    Treasures In The Sand

    St. Francis of Assisi said, “Love God with all your heart and do as you please.” When we love God passionately, supremely, extremely, completely we can do whatever we feel like doing!

    On one of our rare excursions to Sauble Beach I noticed amongst the sea of sunbathers an odd-looking, not-dressed-for-the-occasion-figure sweeping the sand with a metal detector. He was searching for treasures in the sand. He was a little scary as he came too close to a child who was gazing through ...read more

    Our motive and mode of giving matters to God.

    GRACE & GIVING Mark 12:41-44 INTRODUCTION Christians should take seriously the discipline of giving for the Lord’s ministry. Others thought that this is optional and can be replaced by other forms of service. But the Bible is clear that giving materially for the Lord’s work is equal in ...read more

    Placing the coins in the offering, was a greatest act of faith Jesus had seen all day, for what she gave was her total trust to God.

    Note: This was preached on Ash Wednesday, but the content is good anytime of the year. The first two sections support the final section about the poor widow and call for a recommitment to Jesus. God bless. - Peter What is it that God is looking for in our lives? When God sits back and looks at ...read more

    Many people give, but it really doesn’t show their committment to God. Today, we are going to look at a widow who didn’t give much by society’s standards, but she gave it all.

    When I was growing up, I participated in several organizations that held fundraisers. The High School band held the biggest fundraisers twice a year to support our band trips (Disney World, Boston, Canada, etc…). Because I didn’t have the money to go on the trips, it was important for me to ...read more

    Ten Percent Is Not Enough

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Aug 23, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,230 views

    The Story of the widows mite shows us what it really means to give. It is not some percentage that we are required to give. Instead the widows meager offering shows how we are to give all to our Great God.

    Intro: One Sunday in church a little boy took off his tie and put it into the offering plate. “What are you doing?” asked his mother. “The preacher told us to give our ties and offerings.” It is apparent that the young boy misunderstood what the preacher said. It is also apparent today in ...read more

    This message calls for greater commitment and sacrifice. I found the inspiration for this message after having gone to Romania on a missions trip.

    Mark 12:41-44 KJV And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. [42] And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. [43] And he called unto him his disciples, and ...read more

    Tithing is not just an Old Testament idea, it is one of the ways we as Christians should show our love for the Lord.

    Introduction: I heard about a farmer who called the office of famous Televangelist asking to see “The Head Hog at the trough.” The receptionist was shocked and said, “Sir, if you’re talking about our Pastor, you may refer to him as Doctor or Reverend, but I don’t think it would be proper for you ...read more

    Most people think it’s rude to talk about other people’s giving but Jesus didn’t have any qualms about it.

    Everyone enjoys being recognized for the good they have accomplished even if they do the “No really, you don’t have to” thing. They enjoy being thanked and acknowledged for what they’ve done, maybe not publically but people want to know they have made a difference in their world. The scripture ...read more

    My focus here is on three widows - Ruth, her mother-in-law Naomi, and a nameless pensioner who puts all her livelihood into the offertory plate!

    A priest by the name of Wes Seeliger was shopping for a motorcycle. The Harley-Davidson salesperson bragged ‘this machine will go from 0 to 150 in 20 seconds. It will hug the road at 150 km/h.

    The tithe is not about giving because God needs the money. It is about giving because we need to give.

    Give Until It Feels Good Mark 12:41-44 November 4, 2007 There is a risk in telling you this story. It is a risk of sounding like I am bragging. There is a risk of sounding arrogant.

    We have two options when it comes to the Christian faith; we can customize it into a flash and flesh religion (which brings judgment) or we can humbly seek to love and serve God (which elicits God’s applause).

    I stand before you as a former Bank Manager, well aware that some types of ‘Banker’ are not especially popular at the moment; but I think it is the banker in me calculating that in the last 7 years I have probably preached less than 1% of my sermons on the subject of money.
