    Sermon based on the high ideals of church but the realities are so often different.

    Preaching from the lectionary as I do has its limitations. After all, the there are various forms of lections, RC, Episcopalian but I have always used the Reformed Lectionary.

    God patiently tolerates the presence of the weeds in His field rather than risk uprooting even a single stalk of wheat.

    Lectionary 16 A Matthew 13:24-30; 36-43 This morning our Gospel text explores a very important issue that I think all of us have contemplated at one point or another. I know that I have sometimes wondered about this subject as I watched the evening news or listened to the radio or witnessed the ...read more

    This 2nd parable of Christ’s tells of an enemy that sowed "weeds" in the field of the Son of Man. But in the parable Christ instructs his laborers (the angels) not to yank out the weeds? How come?

    The Seeds Introduction Last week we talked about sowing – how we are sowing seeds every day. Whether we want to or not, those seeds are going out.

    the parable of the weeds teaches us: don’t worry, God will sort it out. Evil can grow for awhile, but it will not prevail. Stand strong, be faithful, and we will see the Kingdom of God.

    Give up your dreams of a “pure church”. The reality is there will always be a mixture of true followers and hypocrites. Make sure you’re ready for the judgment day and get on with the work of being fruitful!

    INTRO: I’ve got a confession to make. I love Roundup. I love the feeling of just going around, spraying a little bit of poison and then in a few days seeing those weeds shrivel up and die! It’s so much more fun than actually pulling the weeds up! But, the problem with Roundup is it can be ...read more

    Weeds come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. Some of them flower and look absolutely beautiful and others will poke you and make you bleed. Some weeds are hard to identify as tender shoots but as they age their identity will become clear. Jesus kne
