Elias, a simple farmer, walks away from another of Jesus’ sermons with no answer, just stories about seed, no moral, no punchline. Through the eyes of such a listener, this message walks us through the parables of the wheat and the weeds, the mustard seed and the yeast (Matthew 13), facing a question we still ask: where exactly is God’s kingdom, and is it winning at all? Instead of pulling up weeds we find God’s patience, and instead of a spectacular victory, a seed that grows and a leaven that works its way through everything. Listen if the world around you looks like a place where good is losing.
