“Your Heart Condition” Season of Lent Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025 - Matthew 6:1–6, 16-21

In his sermon, Pastor Jeff discusses Mark Chapter 12, where Jesus confronts the religious leaders with profound questions about the Messiah's identity as both a descendant of David and his Lord. He emphasizes the importance of genuine faith and humility over outward appearances, criticizing the self-promoting behavior of the scribes who exploit the vulnerable instead of truly serving God. The pastor draws attention to the sacrificial giving of a poor widow, highlighting that her offering, though small, was of greater value to God than the larger contributions of the wealthy, as it came from her heart and poverty. Ultimately, he encourages the congregation to reflect on their own giving, advocating for a generous spirit that prioritizes God's kingdom over self-interest.

Main Scripture Passage: Mark 12:35-44
