    The widow & the judge Its obvious what this is all about – yes? Actually just in case we didn’t get it, Luke tells us Jesus gave His own interpretation.

Why did He honour her minute gift so proudly and publicly? The woman is nameless. We have no record of any ...read more

    What can you bring to help build God’s kingdom? Bring what you have, bring what is available and bring what is empty.

    A WIDOWS OIL How much is a bar of iron worth? A plain bar of iron is worth $5. The same bar of iron if made into horse shoes would be worth $50.
