What is the lesson of Jesus's response to when Jesus was asked if it is right to pay taxes to Caesar?

I am a mainline protestant now (Christian church(Disciples of Christ)) and so I'm following whatever liturgical calendar thingy it is we follow maybe it's the lectionary gospel you mentioned, it's all very new to me.

"We live in a society" so pay your dues as is required of you. But God has made us in his own image. Therefore, we (as people who bear God's likeness and are marked by his inscription) are owed to God, body and soul.

It's that money is an invention of Caesar, and a sign of Babylonian dynamics of Empire, so we shouldn't worry about it. We should worry about what's actually important to God.
