0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. My name is Kristen and my name is Katie and we want to spend a few minutes a day with you walking through the New Testament one chapter at a time.
0:11.0	This year we will fix our gaze upon Christ so that we may know
0:14.9	him, not only with our minds but with our hearts. Together we will learn that
0:19.1	who Jesus is changes everything.
0:26.0	Welcome back to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace. My name is Kristen Schmucker, and we are in Luke 21 today.
0:30.0	As a reminder, I'm using the Behold Studies from the Daily Grace Co, as well as the free reading plan, and you can find all the information about those in the show notes.
0:38.5	This chapter opens in the temple with Jesus observing the rich bringing their offerings to the temple
0:43.8	treasury and a widow who brought two tiny coins as an offering to the Lord.
0:49.0	In this account we see another contrast in Luke's gospel. It would take the rich a while to pour their large
0:56.0	offering into one of the temple's 13 offering boxes. But Jesus is drawn to the poor widow
1:02.1	who comes with just two small coins.
1:05.1	Those two coins meant more to him than all of the rest combined because of the heart that she brought them with.
1:12.0	The rich came and gave out of their abundance, but this woman gave out of her
1:16.4	poverty all that she had. She showed her devotion and trust in the Lord as she gave all that she had to him. This wasn't about
1:25.0	dollars and cents to Jesus. It was about the heart of worship that this woman
1:30.0	possessed. The widow's story takes up just a few verses in Luke's Gospel and yet provides such a powerful
1:36.8	message to us as we contemplate our own lives and offering to the Lord.
1:42.4	The majority of this chapter is dealing with the temple and the signs to come.
1:46.3	While the people around him were talking about the temple's beauty, Jesus predicted its
1:50.9	destruction. The disciples wanted to know when it would take place.
1:55.6	The temple was such a significant part of Jewish life at the time that it may have seemed
2:00.6	like the end of the world to imagine the temple gone.
