    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 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
