Scripture Reading Mark 12:38-44 (NRSVUE), Lectionary:
Mark 12:38-44
A widow's generosity
12:38As he taught, he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes and to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces
12:39and to have the best seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets!
12:40They devour widows' houses and for the sake of appearance say long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."
12:41He sat down opposite the treasury and watched the crowd putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.
12:42A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which are worth a penny.
12:43Then he called his disciples and said to them, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury.
12:44For all of them have contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on."
Proclaimed by Rev. Molly Shoulta Tucker
Welcome to Ridgewood!
As a progressive congregation, we believe that the God who created the universe, as told through the poetry of Genesis, created human beings out of a place of Love. As scripture tells us in 1 John 4:8, "God is Love." This is our starting point as individuals, a community, and a world.
In other words, all of God's creatures and all God's people are wonderfully and fearfully made, reflecting the diverse and eccentric Image of God - individually and collectively. No race, gender, or sexuality stands superior to another.
