In Matthew 23, Jesus talks to his disciples about hypocrisy. His words are harsh and poignant, but they are given in love to his disciples as warnings against the perils of false religion. Noel Piepgrass shows us how we can get off track when what we practice doesn't match what we preach.   

In Matthew 22:34-46, Jesus takes on a question from the Pharisees. In their question, they ask, of all the law, what is the greatest commandment? Michael Seaward shows us how Jesus keeps it simple even though simple is hard. In it, we learn once again, that we need Jesus as Lord and Savior. 

In Matthew 22:23-33 Jesus takes on a question about the resurrection from a group of Israel’s religious leaders known as the Sadducees. His answer shows that the life to come will be one of transformed glory for the people of God. By Noel Piepgrass 

Giving to Caesar what is Caesar while giving to God what is God's is a complicated task, especially in a politically charged culture. Noel Piepgrass preaches part 2 in hopes of helping us understand how to apply Matthew 22:15-22 within the lens of 1 Peter 2, Romans 13, and the life of Daniel.

In Matthew 22:15-22, the Pharisees send their disciples along with the Herodians to trap Jesus with a tricky question about whether or not they should pay the Imperial Tax to Caesar. Of course, Jesus will not be trapped, and with his famous phrase, "give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's" he sums up the New Testament's entire teaching on God and Government.

In Matthew 22:1-14, Jesus tells the last parable in a series of parables about what True-Faith looks like. In this parable about a Wedding Banquet, we learn that true faith is marked by transformation. By Noel Piepgrass 

Guest teacher David Jansson, from Radiant Church Visalia, showed us how Jesus's parable in Matthew 21:33-46 is the fulcrum point of the whole story of God. In this parable, Jesus' conflict with the religious leaders comes to a climax and we learn that True-Faith recognizes God's authority.  

Matthew 21:23-32 is a story in which Jesus tells a parable about 2 sons. By Noel Piepgrass

In Matthew 21:12-22 we see Jesus cleanse the temple, cure the blind and the lame, and then curse a fig tree. By Noel Piepgrass
