Following Anyway - Proper 17 with Faith to Go

This week on Faith to Go, Charlette and David explore Jesus’ parable of the laborers in the vineyard and the surprising generosity of God.

The kingdom of heaven doesn't always arrive with fanfare. Sometimes it begins as a tiny mustard seed, works quietly like yeast through dough, or is discovered unexpectedly like hidden treasure in a field. This week on Faith to Go, we explore Jesus' vivid parables from Matthew 13 and consider what they reveal about the surprising, transformative nature of God's kingdom. Together, we'll reflect on what we truly value, where we see God quietly at work in our lives, and how the invitation to follow Jesus is both wonderfully simple and profoundly life-changing.Faith to Go is a ministry of The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego.  Click here to learn more about EDSD's great work in our region and how you can support this ministry.Remember to get in contact with us!Email: [email protected]: @faithtogo

In this episode of Faith to Go, we explore Jesus' parable of the wheat and the weeds from Matthew 13:24–30, 36–43. Why doesn't the farmer pull the weeds immediately? What does this story teach us about judgment, patience, and the surprising way God's kingdom grows? Together, we reflect on living faithfully in a world where good and evil often seem intertwined, trusting that God is at work even when we cannot yet see the full harvest. Join us as we consider how this challenging parable invites us to lead with grace, resist the urge to judge too quickly, and place our hope in God's perfect timing.Faith to Go is a ministry of The Episcopal Diocese of San Diego.  Click here to learn more about EDSD's great work in our region and how you can support this ministry.Remember to get in contact with us!Email: [email protected]: @faithtogo
