Episode Synopsis

The parable of the talents reminds us of the importance of hard work and fruitfulness while we wait for the return of Christ. God placed man in the garden as His viceregent to utilize, steward, and expand the elements of creation. He has likewise placed us in His kingdom for the same work, and it is fitting with His purposes that He would allocate His gifts according to how they are being managed most diligently. We are not to envy or wish we had the gifts of another, but rather, are charged with being thankful for the gifts God has given us, and use them as wisely and as diligently as we are able. As we do this, we can expect that He will continue to give us more gifts and opportunities to steward for our good and His glory.
