CLOSED - Mansfield & United ELCA Lutheran Sermon Sermons PodCasts

CLOSED - Looking back on this venture now, I am embarrassed to have been involved. I'm leaving this up as a reminder that there is more spirituality in a planted flower or a breeze of air than this particular social get-together. One word: Phoney. Mansfield and United Lutheran sermon podcasts from rural Alden and Walters, Minnesota, USA. Pastor Donny Rose ministers only to local members in attendance, If you are too sick to attend, it's pretty much your end.

ELCA Lutheran Sermon Sermons, Pastor Don Rose "Trust in the Kingdom" 2006-06-18

Jesus assures us that the Kingdom will grow and flourish despite any appearances to the contrary.

The Holy Gospel according to Mark, the 4th chapter:

He also said, "The kingdom of God is as if someone would scatter seed on the ground, 27and would sleep and rise night and day, and the seed would sprout and grow, he does not know how. 28The earth produces of itself, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain in the head. 29But when the grain is ripe, at once he goes in with his sickle, because the harvest has come." 30He also said, "With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we use for it? 31It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; 32yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade." 33With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it; 34he did not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything in private to his disciples.

(Mark 4:26-34)
