The Gift of All You Have

Oct 12, 2025
Exceedingly & Abundantly

This Sunday, we continue our series on stewardship, "Exceedingly and Abundantly," as we explore what it means to give with a heart of radical generosity.

Our scripture focus takes us to Luke 21:1-4, where Jesus observes the offerings being placed in the temple treasury. He sees the rich giving large gifts from their excess, and a poor widow offering two small copper coins – literally, all she had to live on. Jesus declares that her small gift is, in reality, the greatest of them all.

This passage challenges us to look beyond the size of our gift and consider the size of our sacrifice. Join us as we reflect on:

  • What does it truly mean to give out of our "poverty" rather than our "abundance"?

  • How can we cultivate a spirit of generosity that holds nothing back?

  • What is the difference between an acceptable offering and an offering that honors God with our whole selves?

Come and be inspired to consider your own giving as an act of profound faith and devotion.
