That brings us to this week’s question: How does God view
success when it comes to the economic sphere? A month ago, we studied the
famous passage in Mark 12:13-17 where Jesus says we must “give to Caesar the
things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s.” We learned that
the Kingdom of God is something entirely different from the one dimensional (or
two dimensional if you heard Chris’s excellent lesson last week) view of
politics. Can we say the same about economics, and if so, how does it
inform our behavior in the market?

Godly Success: Justice, Love, and Politics (Chris)
Continuing the theme
from February 26th, this session explores Biblical justice and love as they
apply to politics and civil society. What is God's perspective on social
order and social engagement? Using the work of Rev. Martin Luther King,
Jr., how can we better understand and balance our role as citizens and our
commitments as disciples of Christ? Ultimately, what does Jesus us tell
us about how we are to live in a fractured and fragmented world?
