This Morning in worship, Pastor Eric preaches the sermon “The Wisdom of Wheat.” We examine another of Jesus' parables in Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43. Like last week’s Gospel reading, this passage contains a parable with images of sowing seeds.
While last week’s sower liberally spread seeds on every kind of ground with mixed results, this week’s sower presumably uses good ground, but also gets mixed results because of the actions of an enemy. Additional texts are Psalm 139:1-12, 23-24 and Romans 8:12-25.
