Bishop Chip Edgar reflects on the saints before the throne of God on this celebration of All Saints Day.

The religious leaders are seeking to trap Jesus with a question about taxes - should they be paid to the Roman Empire or not? Jesus, instead, makes a statement about God - who he is and who we are in relationship to him. Join us this morning as we explore what it means to give back to God what belongs to him.

The banquet is ready but the guests refuse to come! How will the king respond? Who will he choose? And, what does it mean for us to be called and chosen by the king? Join us this morning as we look at the Parable of the Wedding Banquet and consider the life of a called and chosen follower of Jesus.

What does the resurrection mean for our everyday lives? Well - it changes everything! Today we consider out Jesus' resurrection is the first-fruits, setting in motion the defeat of all of God's enemies. Finally, we'll look at how this hope we have influences how are lives are shaped today.

How important is the bodily resurrection? Pauls tells us it's essential, a lynchpin to our redemption in Jesus! Join us this morning as we begin our journey through 1 Corinthians 15, the climax of Paul's letter, and consider the centrality of the resurrection to our hope in Jesus.

What does it mean to pursue gifts in love and how do prophecy and tongues fit into that equation? We'll take a look at 1 Corinthians 14 this morning as we seek to serve others in all things, especially our spiritual gifts.
