Luke's Chapter 21 focus of group's recent study session

Mineral Wells Index

By Linda Farmer | Special to the Index

The Mineral Wells Bible Study Club met Feb. 22 at the home of Nikki Murphy with 16 members in attendance. Nikki opened in  prayer, then Phyllis Lister led the group in the study of the 21st Chapter of Luke.

 Phyllis began the study by reading verses 1-4. Jesus saw the rich putting their offerings into the treasury.  He also saw a poor widow putting in two mites. Phyllis’ message was that Jesus watched and saw what was happening. He commented that the rich contributed out of abundance, but the widow all that she had. The size of an offering is not always an indicator of the measure of one’s love for God – often the amount that is held back is a better indicator of one’s devotion.

  • Reflections on Keeping a Diary

    Many of you knew my mother, Rose Ficke Sparks. In fact quite a few of you were taught by her, either at the old junior high that used to be the first high school or at Houston Elementary School.

  • Reflections on Patience

    I had a person whom I don’t know well at all tell me what an impatient person I am. My goodness, I didn’t realize it showed so much to those who do not know me very well; but, of course, she is right. I am. They say patience is a virtue. It is, but, sadly, it isn’t one of mine.

  • Reflections on My Bible

    Recently a friend of mine and her husband drove to New Hampshire to purchase a summer home. Sunday came and, as they had seen an Anglican church close by, they decided to attend. Instead, they ended up going to a Bible church down the street. As they drove up to the church, she turned to her husband and said, “I surely hope they believe in the same Bible we do!”
