The Kingdom of Heaven is Like Yeast

The Kingdom of Heaven is Like Yeast

Continuing our series on the parables of Jesus, this Sunday’s text gives us images of growth and height. The yeast fills dough with air, makes it rise, gives it texture and richness. We seem to value these things! And yes, perhaps I’ve inflated this illustration (as preachers are wont to do), and in doing so perhaps have given it texture and richness. The short text for this Sunday is rich with imagery, in part because it is familiar.

Scripture: Matthew 13:33 (CEB)
