    Contributed by Shawn Rose on Nov 7, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,979 views

    By contrasting the scribes with a poor widow woman, Jesus teaches us about true devotion.

    THE MARK OF TRUE DEVOTION Text: Mark 12:38 – 44 What does it mean to be truly devoted to God? Does it mean that you are there every time the church doors open? Does it mean that you are the first to volunteer when there is a job to be done? Does it mean that you faithfully put 10% of ...read more

  • The Poor Widow's Offering Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 3, 2015

    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
     | 10,013 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

    Contributed by Dan Boyce on Aug 26, 2011
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,511 views

    In this sermon we will compare and contrast two Jews we encounter in the Gospels. One is a wealthy young ruler and the other is a widow. One has much and gives little. The other has little and gives much. Instead of the “balanced” life we often are ex

    The Disciple's Life: A Tale of Two Jews Mark 12:41-42 (Luke 21:1-4); Mark 10:17-30 (Luke 18:18-29) Today is Pentecost! Pentecost is the Jewish feast that celebrated the early grain harvest. It is on this day that the church was born in Jerusalem when a group of 120 disciples of Jesus were ...read more

  • The Grace Of Giving

    Contributed by Dan Santiago on Aug 18, 2012
     | 15,476 views

    We need to take giving seriously because OUR MOTIVE AND MODE OF GIVING MATTERS TO GOD.

    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 importance compare to that ...read more

  • The Christian, Money And Giving

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,983 views

    Every Christian needs to know that God is the owner of the money, and we are to be willing to use the money according to His purpose and for His glory.

    THE CHRISTIAN, MONEY AND GIVING Study Text: Mark 12:41-44 - Money is an issue about which many are sensitive and close mouthed. However, it is an issue about which the Bible has much to say. - And, it is an issue that affects every person either as individual or as family. - We depend upon ...read more

  • Giving God Our Leftovers Series

    Contributed by Dan Raymond on Dec 7, 2015
     | 13,673 views

    We continue looking at the astounding mathematics of grace by looking at a widow's very small offering that Jesus says is more than anyone else gave. I also have graphics available.

    (Show video of comedian Anthony Griffith talking about hand-me-downs) That's funny. Hand-me-downs, leftovers; those things are okay I guess if you're talking about old clothes or your mom's cooking. But there are other times when leftovers aren't such a good idea: handkerchiefs, motor oil, maybe ...read more

  • The Power Of Contrast Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jan 25, 2016
     | 5,500 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

  • ‘the Mighty Widow’ Series

     | 8,708 views

    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

  • A Lesson On Giving

     | 10,267 views

    The Temple maintained a public fund for charity, out of which money was available for helping the poor. People would bring their gift and place it in one of the thirteen trumpet-shaped containers. Each was labeled for a specific use.

    Jerusalem A Lesson on Giving Mark 12:41-44(Focal Passage), Luke 21:1-4, (Lev. 27:30) Mark 12:41-44 41 Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury.

     | 9,491 views

    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

  • Disgusted Or Delighted? Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 28, 2018
     | 12,837 views

    A stark contrast between religious hypocrites and a faithful woman. The religious show-offs were mostly interested in what they could GET out of life. And the poor widow as interested in all she could GIVE.

    INTRODUCTION My younger brother, Dan, and I are a lot alike. He serves as a Minister of Education and Senior Adults at a church in Conway, Arkansas. One thing we have in common is that we both have a sense of humor leaning toward puns and groaners. You’ve endured plenty of my groaners through the ...read more

     | 6,204 views

    the widow gave all she had in faith

    We just heard Jesus condemn the officials of the church for being pompous, strutting around like peacocks and preying on the poor and defenseless (Mark 12:38-44). In Jesus’ time, a woman who was widowed was the lowest form of humanity. The men owned everything (even any money and property a ...read more

  • Living On A Shoe String

    Contributed by Lonnie Erwin on Feb 3, 2018
     | 5,430 views

    Stewardship is not a mater of quantity but quality. The widow did not have much but Jesus said "she gave her all".

    Our text today depicts an event in the live of Jesus when He was just sitting back and observing people. He is not keeping tabs on what the people are putting to the treasury, but He is seeing the attitude of the spiritual heart of those who are bring their gifts to God. What is in our heart is ...read more

  • Back To The Basics - Giving Series

    Contributed by Mark Engler on Sep 28, 2017
     | 17,820 views

    Giving to the church is a very basic part of Christianity. Giving should be from the heart, thought about before hand, should be done willingly. After this sermon our church stopped passing the offering plates for offering.

    Back to the Basics - Giving ME Well we are at the end of the Back to the Basics sermon series. Before I started this series I had it planned out the basic things I would talk about. Although I planned out what I was going to preach, I offered up to you all to suggest any topics you would like to ...read more
