I believe that the conversation matters. If in the attempt to realize the reign of God on earth, we cannot engage one another in respectful and grace-filled dialogue, we might as well not even try.

Render Unto ... ?
Has anyone else noticed that the lectionary text for April 15th has Peter saying, "We must obey God rather than any human authority" (Acts 5:29) and it just happens to be the day our taxes are due?
The words I write here are my own, not my denomination's, my conference's, my district's, or my congregation's. Please hold nobody but me accountable to them.

Good catch Andy. Although technically, our taxes aren't due this year until April 17.
Now, anyone want to rant about the ridiculous tax rules regarding pastors? It's almost enough to make one want to cuss.
In that case since the lectionary is created by man, you don't really need to do what it says anyway.
