About this episode

The episode discusses Jesus' response to political challenges in the context of faith and authority.

We continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the neighborhoods of Seattle and the nations of the world. Today, Jesus’ enemies try to trap him yet again. This time they use politics, but as usual he turns it around on them. Caesar and God are not automatic rivals. We are to give Caesar what is Caesar’s, and God what is God’s. Audio | Notes | Luke 20:19-26
