The Patient Sower, A Supernova and Kneelers

July 16, 2023
This Sunday we heard Jesus offer the parable of the Sower (Matthew 13). This is a parable that speaks two hard truths:
First, that evil is at work in our world.
Second, that God is also at work in our world; but God works on a different time horizon than we do.
A call to patience (where the kneelers come in) and the promise of God's patience (where the supernova comes in).
