Jesus, the Scribes, and the Widow’s Mite

Pastor Robert Furrow explores Jesus’ teaching in Mark 12:38–44, connecting His warning about leaders who exploited widows with the story of a poor widow’s offering. This message examines religious hypocrisy, the motives behind worship and generosity, and God’s call to care for the vulnerable. It also considers whether Jesus’ words about the widow express both admiration for her faith and sorrow over a system that failed her.
