À propos de ce contenu audio
We often treat our faith and our institutions like a perfectly manicured lawn—exhausting ourselves to keep everything orderly, respectable, and predictable. But what happens when the wine runs out and our carefully cultivated resources fail?.On this First Sunday of Lent, Rev. Dr. Charissa Clark Howe explores the surprising nature of God’s Kingdom through the Wedding at Cana and the Parable of the Mustard Seed. Jesus completely flips our expectations of power and order. Instead of a majestic Cedar of Lebanon or rigid jars of purification, he brings 180 gallons of extravagant joy and plants an invasive, scrappy weed that grows into a sanctuary for the vulnerable.Listen in to discover why the Good News catches us by surprise, why we don't need to be a pristine lawn, and why the church does its most profound work when it embraces being the "scrappy underdog".
