  • The Poor Widow Series

    Contributed by Neil Partington on Jul 31, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 12,376 views

    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

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Aug 23, 2007

     | 6,136 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

    A message exploring the importance of wholehearted and holistic worship of Jesus Christ and how our image of Him is sometimes incorrect.

    Giving all we have to God through Jesus Christ. We should give everything because it all belongs to God. And we should give gladly.

    I’m not allowed to eat at Mc Donald’s, except on very special occasions, once a year.
