2. Read verses 3-4. What did Jesus say about the poor widow’s offering? (3) Why did Jesus value her humble offering more than all the others? (4) What does Jesus recognize about our offering?

3. Why do you think the widow put in all she had to live on? What does her exemplary offering teach us about how to please God?
