    Honouring God With Our Treasure

    Contributed by William Baeta on Nov 22, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,936 views

    “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on” Mark 12:43-44

    Theme: Honouring God with our treasure Text: 1 Kings 17:7-16; 1 Tim. 6:17-19; Mark 12:41-44 Giving is an attitude that is contrary to our fleshly nature. The flesh is a way of thinking that is contrary to the Word of God and it has been said that the last part of us to be converted is our pocket. ...read more

    "The Widow's Might"

    God has a claim on your life. He does not just claim a part of you for Himself. He claims all of you. He doesn’t just want part of you…He wants all of you.

    HEARTBEATS “The Widow’s Might” Mark 12: 41-44 Burt Reynolds once starred in a film titled “The End.” In the movie he decides to take his life by swimming as far as he can until he is completely exhausted and then not having the strength to get back he thought he ...read more

    Questions And Answers Series

    Jesus ends His public ministry with three key principles: God’s love commands us to love our neighbors; He sees every action we do (don't be a Pharisee); giving sacrificially is what God requires of us, even if it means giving all we have.

    Questions and Answers Mark 12:28-44 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - This morning we have two things ...read more

    Other People's Money - Pt. 1 - Sacrifice And Trust Series

    Your neighbor attends church wanting instruction and supernatural response in every important area of life . . . relationships, direction and success, but we they don't want anyone to talk about money.

    Other People's Money Pt. 1 - Sacrifice & Trust I. Introduction I have learned there are certain things that just don't go well together. Some of this I learned in school and others just by observation. Oil and water. 26 inch rims on a $500 car. Vegetables and fruit on my plate. Skinny jeans on ...read more

    In this message we will discuss everyone's favorite spiritual growth habit... The habit of GIVING...

    Grow The Habit Of Giving When they grew up, Abel became a shepherd, while Cain cultivated the ground.3 When it was time for the harvest, Cain presented some of his crops as a gift to the LORD. Abel also brought a gift—the best portions of the firstborn lambs from his flock. The LORD accepted Abel ...read more

    The Poor Widow's Offering Series

    Today we’ll learn a significant lesson from a seemingly insignificant person. If not for Jesus pointing her out, the act of the poor widow would’ve escaped everyone’s notice and the opportunity to learn a valuable lesson would’ve been lost.

    THE POOR WIDOW’S OFFERING (Mark 12:41-44) Today we’ll learn a significant lesson from a seemingly insignificant person. If not for Jesus pointing her out, the act of the poor widow would’ve escaped everyone’s notice and the opportunity to learn a valuable lesson ...read more

    Blessed Are The Poor Widows

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 10, 2015
     | 9,936 views

    God measures giving not by what we give, but by what we keep for ourselves. He measures the gift by the sacrifice involved. That is why Jesus valued the widow’s gift. She sacrificed her well-being in order to show her love for God.

    When I was preparing my message for today, I came across a story about a little boy who went to church one Sunday morning to get out of the cold. He had been trying to sell newspapers, but no one had passed by. He entered the church, hoping to pass an hour unnoticed in the back row. The minister ...read more

    The Widow's Mite Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 30, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 33,006 views

    The story of the widow's mite has been used to show Christians what their attitude toward giving should be. This message challenges that traditional and longstanding teaching.

    Growing up I don’t think I heard a teaching about the widow’s mite that did not take the widow and make her the standard by which all of us are to give when it comes to our giving. “This poor widow woman came to the altar and gave her last mite. She did that for the Lord! What an example she is to ...read more

    This is part of a series of very brief messages that can be used in church newsletters for stewardship.

    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 poor widow ...read more

    The Sermon On The Mount (Part 14) Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Dec 9, 2019
     | 4,668 views

    Today we start chapter six. Throughout chapter five we saw the phrase, "you have heard it was said". Jesus no longer starts out that way. Jesus isn't challenging contradictory teachings but contradictory practices. Today's lesson is on why we do good deeds.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part 14) Matthew 6:1-4 Today we start chapter six. We'll notice that Jesus doesn't introduce his topics as he has up to this point. Throughout chapter five we saw the now familiar phrase, "you have heard it was said". But Jesus doesn't start out that ...read more

    2 A Cup Of Coffee

    Jesus sees what we’re doing; he values our service to him, even in things that might seem very small to us; and he will reward our service.

    A cup of coffee *** Background: my second service as minister; the interim minister is leaving. At the start of the service I make a cappuccino coffee and cut a piece of cake. I invite Jo, the church secretary, to come to the front and then serve the coffee and cake, explaining that it is a ...read more

    Don't Be A Show Off

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 14, 2018
     | 6,822 views

    This could be used as a stewardship sermon and hopefully would get people to realize that their is more to being a Christian than just filling a pew. Hopefully this sermon compels people to look beyond the superficial and truly look to their heart.

    (a note about the opening illustration; It is not my own but i don't know where I actually found it originally, it is tucked away with some notes I have.) There was a man who called a church and asked if he could speak to the Head Hog at the trough. The secretary said, "Who?" Then ...read more

    The Power Of Contrast Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jan 25, 2016
     | 5,452 views

    There is nothing like a contrast to make the point; Jesus used the idea of contrast to highlight Who He is, and to distinguish external religion from true devotion.

    The Power of Contrast (Mark 12:35-44) 1. Illustration … a few years ago,. Trying to tell someone about the Windfarm on I-65 in NW Indiana. This person had never seen the big windmills, and was thinking of a place with 3 tiny windmills on US 31.. or the types farmers use to pump water in ...read more

    Jesus summarizes the law in the Great Commandment, the scribes seek honor, and a poor widow gives all.

    Mark 12:28-44 “Total Commitment INTRODUCTION It doesn’t take long, while reading the gospel of Mark, to realize that the kingdom of God is a very different from the nations and societies of the world. When reflecting on the kingdom of God and what it means to be a disciple of ...read more
