The Mitey Widow
Covenant, gift, Judgment, Mark 12:41-44, Mite, Pharisees, scribes, widow
Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are in Mark 12. Here we encounter Jesus at the temple and the poor widow’s tiny, yet very large, gift. Her gift of two mites is the biggest gift of the day! God measures the gift by the heart or the life of the giver, not according to external values. Bob and Ken have an interesting discussion along these lines from Mark 12.

May 23, 2024 by Ken Yates in Blog - Luke 11:52, Luke 5:12-16, Luke 5:17-26, Pharisees, scribes, Teachers
Luke 5:17-26 is the passage that tells the story of the paralyzed man who was healed by the Lord when his friends lowered him through the roof. Even though I’ve heard this story many times, I recently noticed something I had previously missed. Luke recounts that there were scribes and Pharisees in the house. I

The Rejection of Christ by the Sadducees 

December 6, 2023 by Ken Yates in Blog - Pharisees, Sadducees

At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children. (Matt 11:25 ESV) The Complexity of the Pharisees Matthew 11 is a sad time in the Gospel of Matthew. John the Baptist has been
