THE MEANING BEHIND THE WIDOW'S MITE

The story of the Widow's Mite (Mark 12:41-44) is popular among the stories of the Gospels, but it is more than a simple story of Love and Generosity. When read beside the story of Elijah and the Widow of Zarephath (I Kings 17:10-16) it takes on a meaning beyond a simple act of "giving". Fr. Bill discusses both stories together and discusses the deeper meaning behind the generosity of both widows. ---- Listen to Fr.
