“Stormed by Stealth”–
Mark 4:21-34 —
Sometimes God’s plan seems off-base. The building of God’s kingdom seldom makes headlines. Furthermore, our weary struggle often seems futile. But Jesus reveals God’s program may seem to be dragging, but actually it is storming the world by stealth. In a visual age of instant everything, Jesus’ parables encourage patient and persistent faith toward a certain and overwhelming outcome.
