The greatest age is yet to come! The kingdom of God. Present already yet veiled in weakness, humble and meek. Unseen as yeast, fragile as a seedling, despised as a mustard seed. Yet full of power to change about everything, turn a corrupt world upside-down, set all things right. The power of the coming kingdom, concealed today, someday soon going to be revealed. Greater than words can explain, perceivable only in pictures, in parables.
In this course we are going to look at some of Jesus’ kingdom-parables as reported in the Gospel of Matthew. And we attempt to draw some conclusions for our mission into this world.
