Unshaken: Chapter a Day

Matthew 25 Discussion

The most unsettling question isn’t when the end times timeline lands—it’s whether we’re living like the King could arrive today. We open Matthew 25 and move through three unforgettable parables—the ten virgins, the talents, and the sheep and the goats—to draw out a simple, urgent pattern: stay awake, take risks with what God has entrusted, and love people in concrete ways that prove our allegiance. Along the way, we compare premillennial and amillennial perspectives, not to score points, but to clarify why the text matters for daily life, whether you think these words are for a future moment or right now.

We start with personal readiness. Oil isn’t transferable, and neither is faith. That image exposes our habit of borrowing spiritual energy from community while neglecting the inner life that burns when delay stretches long. Then we tackle stewardship and the myth of “safe.” The servant who buried his talent wasn’t prudent; he was unfaithful. Faith acts on the Master’s character, pushes past fear, and proves trustworthy with little so it can carry more. Finally, we face the judgment scene without flinching: compassion toward the hungry, the stranger, and the vulnerable is not optional compassion—it’s evidence of the King’s life within us.

Through it all, we keep our eyes on God’s character: Jesus is the returning King, a righteous Judge, and a generous Master who keeps his promises. We also get honest about human nature—our longing to hear “Well done” and our drift toward sloth and blame. If Christ showed up this hour, would he find you doing his will? Let this conversation reset your habits, your courage, and your love for the least of these. If the timeline is uncertain, our urgency can’t be.
