Tonight's Talk

Tonight we talked about our talents! We also talked about how we go about using our talents to glorify Christ. We spent some time thinking about what Talents God has blessed us with. Then we thought of ways that we could use those talents to glorify God.

We also spent some time looking at the NT:summer challenge. Lindsay D. asked about the meaning of the parable of the Tenants. Evan pointed out that Jesus was talking about how the Pharisees and teachers of the law had killed and abused many messengers and prophets from God and were about to kill God's Son. Jesus warns them through the parable that their "vineyard" was going to be taken from them and given to someone else. We will see this come to pass as we continue to read the New Testament this summer. This warning is good for us today because we are now the ones who are passing on Gods words and in ccharge of pointing people to His glory. We should constantly be doing a heart check and see what our motives are and how we are carrying out His commands and Love. As we think about living for God it is always good to check our motivation! Good night :-)
