LOOK:

The early church placed high value on honoring their widows and making sure they were cared for. As I was preparing this lesson, I became much more aware of the number of widows that sit in our class week after week. I found myself asking “How well are we as the WITW taking care of the widows in our class?”

Q: What do you think are the needs of widows today, and I would especially like to hear from those in our class who are widows to help us understand your needs. [Widows who were left behind in the NT were literally left in poverty, which is why they rec’d daily distributions of food.]

Q: What would be a good action plan to take care of our own?
