The Talents

PRAY.COM
About this episode

We’ve all been given gifts. We’ve been given talents, resources, and opportunities. What have you done with those gifts? Have you invested time and passion, or have you hidden them from the world?

This parable is another punch to the jaw, as Jesus warns us about neglecting the gifts and opportunities entrusted to us. This story is meant to inspire us to be people of action. The Gospel requires we take risks… Are you willing to step out in faith?

Today's Bible verse is Romans 8:9 from the King James Version.
