Pastor Jim explores the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath from 1 Kings 17, emphasizing what it means to follow God with costly obedience. From hiding in enemy territory to relying on miraculous provision, Elijah’s journey reflects deep trust in God’s faithfulness. The widow, too, demonstrates courageous faith in offering her last meal. Jim connects this story to Jesus, the better Elijah, who enters enemy territory, speaks truth to power, and draws near to death to bring hope and restoration to the powerless.
