Posting from the archives again this week! We hope to be back recording new episodes in August. Until then, I know 3-years-ago Aaron and Marissa would love to have you join them for Proper 12. 😉
In this episode, we consider the readings for Proper 12, Year A:

Genesis 29:15-28 & Psalm 105:1-11,45b or Psalm 128; 1 Kings 3:5-12 & Psalm 119:129-136; Romans 8:26-39; Matthew 13:31-33,44-52.

We discuss Jacob's marriage to Leah and Rachel (and how Laban's deception and mistreatment of Jacob echos Jacob's deception and mistreatment of his father Isaac and brother Esau), Paul's spectacular (and often misunderstood/misapplied) conclusion of Romans 8 with its promise that "all things work together for good," and finally Jesus's rapid set of short kingdom parables: a mustard seed, a bit of yeast, a valuable treasure, a treasure-seeker, and a net that captures too much rather than too little.
