Jesus’ parable of the talents reveals three facts about how Christians ought to live in the time before his return: 1) Jesus has generously entrusted us with his resources – the gospel message most of all. 2) Jesus invites us to steward those resources faithfully, judging success by whether we are faithful to try, not our fruitfulness. 3) Our view of our master drives our response to His generosity. As we remember who our master is (as displayed in the gospel), we find ourselves motivated and inspired to invest, steward, and bear fruit. Be faithful to invest the gospel in others.|Jesus’ parable of the talents reveals three facts about how Christians ought to live in the time before his return: 1) Jesus has generously entrusted us with his resources – the gospel message most of all. 2) Jesus invites us to steward those resources faithfully, judging success by whether we are faithful to try, not our fruitfulness. 3) Our view of our master drives our response to His generosity.
