     | 12,155 views

    Using the story of the widow's mite, we learn just how much "two cents" is worth.

    I find it interesting identifying the origin of popular words and phrases. No less so that the phrase many of us have often used, “But, that’s just my two cents.” Where did that phrase come from? Depending upon where one searches for the answer, we would discover that the English ...read more

     | 13,639 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
     | 5,491 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

    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.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 40,011 views

    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
     | 9,982 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 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.

     | 5,705 views

    Don’t hire Jesus to be a fundraiser; he just doesn’t seem to have good money sense.

    Introduction One of the characteristics that makes our country great, as seen in the recent tragedy, is the pleasure people take in giving to worthy causes.
