Give It Back

There's a drawer you stopped checking a long time ago, an account, a habit, an opinion you've quietly filed as none of God's business. When the religious leaders try to trap Jesus over paying taxes to Caesar, his answer does something bigger than dodge politics: it asks whose image is actually stamped on the parts of your life you've stopped looking at. Giving back isn't a decision you get to make once. What's still sitting in drawer?

Series Information

Terry proclaims the one Gospel through the history, research, rememberings and faith expressed in the text of the Gospel According to Luke. Jesus himself is the good news expressed by Luke. Beginning with the birth narratives unique to Luke's presentation, the good news of the Kingdom explodes into faithful view as each account, teaching, parable and event lived out and offered by Jesus, the Messiah-King, is examined the way Luke seemingly examined Jesus in his own work. Here we find a Jesus to love, a Jesus to follow, and ultimately a Jesus to worship.
