Reflecting on Scripture 3 - Mark 12:13-17 - Giving to Caesar
Update: 2025-10-13
Description
In this episode I look at Jesus's response to the Pharisees and Herodians question about paying taxes to Rome. Jesus replies, "Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”
I argue that Jesus is urging us to shift our point of view entirely about worldly authority, and recognize instead the authority of a loving God.
