Search Tips

  • Entering a search string with no other criteria (such as AND, NOT, or quote marks) will return some of the context around the words you entered (which are highlighted) as well as a link to the audio player for the class.
    That page will also have links to the video, transcript, and slides for that class.

  • Entering two search terms separated by the word AND will return links to all items which contain both of those terms as well as part of the description of each class.

  • Entering two terms separated by the word NOT will return links to all items which contain the first term but not the second term as well as part of the description of each class.

Why should we pay taxes? After all, the money is being used for a lot of things we think are wrong. Listen to this lesson to learn what Jesus had to say on the subject even about taxes that were not required. See how Jesus illustrated that He, as the Son of God, was not obligated to pay the temple tax but did so as an excellent citizen. Find out that Christians should not create an issue to distract from God and cause unbelievers to doubt. Although we will never be perfect on this earth, each day we have opportunities to do our best in ways that glorify God.
