Understanding the story of the Widow's Mite

from Scripture Central: LDS Come Follow Me & Church History · host SC

The story of the widow's mite is a powerful reminder that God is more interested in our heart than the amount of our gift. The widow gave all she had, even though it was very little, and Jesus commended her for her sacrifice. We can learn from her example to give generously even when it is difficult. The story also teaches us that God sees and remembers our good deeds, no matter how small they may seem. He is always with us and He will reward us for our faithfulness.Sign up for email notifications for new videos here: https://bit.ly/2uV4vloFor more videos on the Life of Christ: https://bit.ly/2FgnMlSFor the text of this video: Produced, narrated, and edited by Daniel SmithScript written by Heather Ruth Pack and edited by Ryan DahleSpecial thanks to LUMO for allowing me to use their beautiful life of Christ footage (lumoproject.com)Bryan Platamone, Ethan Fullmer, and Alex Ducos for helping with the 3D animationsHerod’s Temple research from Leen Ritmeyer, Orit Peleg-Barkat, and Frankie Snyder© 2023 Messages of Christ YouTube Channel and Scripture CentralNo portion of this video may be reproduced, re-uploaded, or copied without prior permission.The products (services) offered by Messages of Christ are neither made, provided, approved nor endorsed by Intellectual Reserve, Inc. or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
