    based on 20 ratings
     | 13,356 views

    The Widow's Gift Series

    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,073 views

    It’s not the size of your gift that matters, but the size of your heart. Believe every cent counts in the Kingdom of God. Learn to be totally dependent upon God.

    Why would Jesus be so impressed with a widow who gave only two mites, which is less than a cent? He was so impressed that He called His disciples together and singled her out of the crowd. Why did He honour her minute gift so proudly and publicly? The woman is nameless. We have no record of any ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,584 views

    The same strategies that fail outside of God’s timing can work wonderfully within God’s timing. The patterns we see before Moses left Egypt are repeated as Moses left Midian, but they now produce success because God’s time is right.

    The Return Ticket (Exodus 4:18-31) 1. I do not like many movies, especially newer ones. Although Christian convictions would limit what and how much I watch, if I was lost I still would rarely watch movies. It is who I am. I am, for the most part, a movie dud. 2. I will watch Charlie Chan, or ...read more

     | 5,376 views

    God is Dad! The Bible declares that the Father’s passionate rejoicing over His children echoes throughout the heavenlies.

    How do people imagine God to be when they pray? Is He far from them or is He near? Is He powerful or passive? Is He disgusted with them or in love with them? Is He a mean old man, or a kindly grandpa-type, or neither? Is He listening? Does He care for them? Can He help them? What a person believes ...read more
