Holy Bible, compass, and crucifix on a Europe map spread over a rustic wooden table

“Jesus said, “What is the Kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it? It is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in the garden. When it was fully grown, it became a large bush and the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches.” Again he said, “To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God? It is like yeast that a woman took and mixed in with three measures of wheat flour until the whole batch of dough was leavened.” —Luke 13:18-21

We live in a fallen world, and while God does not place the hardship in our lives, He does place blessings within them. It is through this tribulation that God has tilled the field and ground the wheat.

The world awaits the seed and the yeast, and Jesus has given us the task of working them in. Our mission is to bring Christ into all that is broken and ground up. For the Word of God makes all things grow and rise.
