This week, we’re pressing pause on our Hard Questions, Honest Answers series to talk about something just as essential — the power of giving.
In this message from Luke 21:1–4, Elder Tony Jones walks us through Jesus’ encounter with a poor widow whose offering caught the attention of heaven. Though she gave only two small coins, Jesus declared that she gave more than everyone else — not because of the amount, but because of the heart behind it.
Here’s the key truth: God cares more about how you give than what you give.
Through this powerful teaching, we confront false teachings like the prosperity gospel and poverty gospel — and rediscover what true, biblical giving looks like:
- Giving for the right reasons
- Giving as led by the Holy Spirit
- And not giving unless you’ve got it to give
Whether you’re financially secure or barely getting by, this message will challenge and encourage you to give with a heart that trusts, honors, and worships Jesus.
