The Bible Through the Seasons: A Three-Year Journey with the Bible

Scripture: 1 Kings 17:8-16   Mark 12:38-44

Jesus often draws sharp contrasts in his stories. Herod and the Magi, the older and younger son in the story of "The Prodigal Son," the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, etc. Today we lift up the contrasting energies that defined the giving-life of a Scribe and that of a poor widow who gave her all to God.
