Listen Later

In this week's episode of Taste and See, we explore the Gospel passage of the widow’s offering in Mark 12:41-44, focusing on the profound act of giving everything we have. Drawing from his own experiences, Zac reflects on a deeply emotional moment with his mother, who chose a path of suffering for the love of him. This episode invites us to consider the true meaning of sacrificial love and trust in God when life’s challenges feel overwhelming.

We’ll delve into:

  1. Understanding Sacrificial Love: How true love requires sacrifice, as Jesus and the widow demonstrate.
  2. Trust in the Midst of Suffering: Stories of faith when it’s hard to see God’s plan.
  3. Poverty and Generosity: How giving from our “poverty”—whether it’s emotional, financial, or spiritual—can be an offering to God.
  4. The Role of Mary and Jesus’ Suffering: Reflections on Mary’s sacrificial love as she stood by Jesus on Calvary.
  5. Personal Reflections on Faith and Family: Heartfelt insights on how family love shapes our relationship with God and challenges us to trust Him.

    6. Listen now to deepen your faith and learn how to embrace sacrificial love, even in times of great difficulty. Join us as we journey through the story of the widow, the mystery of Mary’s love, and the transformative power of trusting in God.
