Render to Caesar, Render to God (Mark 12:13–17)

In this episode of Bible Tidbits, Jesus faces another trap from the religious leaders, a question about paying taxes to Caesar. But His response, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s,” goes far beyond politics. From Mark 12:13–17, we explore what it means to honor earthly authorities while living under the higher rule of God. Discover how Jesus’ wisdom reveals both our civic duty and our spiritual identity as image-bearers made for Him.
