We've heard "In God we trust." Have we given "In us God trusts" very much consideration? In the Parable of the Talents, a merchant puts talents into the hands of his servants to see what they will do with them. May we all be good and faithful servants with the things that God has placed into our care.All this dovetails perfectly with training for a marathon and questioning whether anyone has really ever gone to the moon. Join in and let us amaze you with our talent of tying it all together.

We don’t know whose version of the bad news we can even trust. Yet, amidst the chaos, we know God's Word is true and it’s for...
