The Talents

This week Pastor Jared taught on the Parable of the Ten Minas from Luke 19:11-27. Below are some questions and thoughts to reference as you listen and reflect throughout the week!

What are some gifts and abilities God has given you to use for the Kingdom of God?

The servants who were instructed to do work on behalf of the king were likely working in an environment that was hostile toward them, because the people hated the king. If you were in the position of those servants, how would you respond? Would you be willing to risk for the sake of doing business for the king who had gifted you the resources to do them?

Do you tend to view God as more results-focused or more relationship-focused? In thinking about what God has given you, do you think about it more with fear of losing it, or with a willingness to risk it out of love for God and others?
