    It’s not the size of your gift that matters, but the size of your heart. Believe every cent counts in the Kingdom of God. Learn to be totally dependent upon God.

    Why would Jesus be so impressed with a widow who gave only two mites, which is less than a cent? He was so impressed that He called His disciples together and singled her out of the crowd. Why did He honour her minute gift so proudly and publicly? The woman is nameless. We have no record of any ...read more

    This is a story of a mothers love, love that grovels in the dust for her child, love that gives away the last meal in faith, love that meets with God and finds his deliverance

    Mothers Today is Mothers day, hope you remembered, as do the card companies they need your revenue – There is no special reference to a mothers day in the bible so why today?

    Jesus contrasts the phony goodness of the religious leaders with the true devotion of the poor widow. With this great story He gives three great principles about giving; (1) God cares about our giving, (2) God cares about how we give and (3) God cares how

    A Study of the Book of Luke Sermon # 58 The Widow’s Mite! Luke 21:1-4 Dr. John Broadus, on one memorable Sunday as the ushers were about the offering, left the platform and walked down to where the ushers were beginning to take ...read more

    Good people suffer to when a land is being judged for its sin. Paul says in Romans 14:7, “none of us live to himself.”

    The widow and the prophet. First King’s 17: 8 -- 16. 05/19/04 The scene opens with the Brook Cherith, the only water supply for Elijah had dried up. It had dried up because of the lack of rain.

    What would you do if God asked you to give the very last of your possessions to a complete stranger? This episode in the life of Elijah, shows us what real faith is all about.

    THE WISDOM OF A WIDOW I Kings 17:8-16 The sun beats down unmercifully upon the tiny town of Zarephath, a remote village well to the north of the land of Palestine.

    Have you ever been totally dependant upon God? The lesson of the widow is that "importunity equals opportunity". Learn what it is that really impresses God!

    THE WIDOW’S “MIGHT” Mark 12: 41-44 It is a mild Sabbath morning in the Palestinian City of Jerusalem. The sun has not yet risen to full strength, and yet people are already lined up all the way down the dusty road which leads to the Holy Temple.

    Another wonderful example that our God is the "God of no shortages!"

    THE WIDOW OF ZAREPHATH "So she went away, and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and he and her household ate for many days. The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke by Elijah." I Kings ...read more

    How trusting in God through tithing brings many correctives and blessings to our lives.

    THE WIDOW’S FAITH 41He sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the crowd putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. 42A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which are worth a penny. 43Then he called his disciples and said to them, “Truly I tell you, this ...read more

    I was performing a wedding for a young couple. Before the wedding, the groom came to me and said, “Pastor, I will give you $100 if you change the wedding vows. When you get to the part to ask me to honor, love and obey, just leave that part out for me. Then, he handed me $100. During the wedding, ...read more

    Its obvious what this is all about – yes, no. Another challenging way of reading this passage.

    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. So, its a story about persistence in prayer and God’s compassion and responsiveness. Isn’t it? Well let’s just think a little about it. There ...read more

    This sermon focuses on the story of the Widow’s Oil from 2 Kings 4 and answers the questions: "Why do bad things happen to good people, where is God when they do, and what do we do when it happens to us?" Part of a series entitled "Seven".

    We’re in a series called "Seven" learning unforgettable lessons from forgotten lives of the Old Testament. This week we are going to take a look at a woman who is having a very difficult time in her life. In fact I’m not sure things can get worse.
