Message: “Bad Girl Jezebel” from Rev. Wendy Miller Olapade

With all the political turmoil and social conflict brought on by this election season, it's easy to feel like you don't have control of anything. However, with the parable of talents, Jesus reminds us that each of us has to role to play in building the kingdom of God's love. The only way to get it wrong, he says, is to do nothing!

Scripture References: Matthew 25:14-30

From Series: "Parables: Jesus the Storyteller"

Jesus was a master storyteller. He constantly found ways to take everyday objects, customs, and practices and use them to illustrate profound spiritual truths. Two millenia later, however, those everyday things he used to open the hearts and minds of his students, aren’t quite so common. In this six week series, we tackle six of Jesus’ parables from the Gospel of Matthew. With a little bit of context, we discover that they still have much to teach us about compassion, generosity, and living good lives.
