Rest, Roots, and Renewal
Tune in for conversations with pastors at The Oaks Community Church in Middletown, Ohio. Each episode will feature a passage of Scripture that our church will be exploring during our upcoming Sunday gathering.
Rest, Roots, and Renewal will challenge listeners to examine how the gospel of Jesus invites us into a life of rest (calm, aware, present), roots (a people and a place), and renewal (personal and communal).

Text:
Luke 13:18-21
Description:
In this week's episode, Matt and Eric discuss Jesus' parable of the mustard seed and the leavened bread. Why does Jesus use confusing parables to talk about the Kingdom of God? What challenges does it present when trying to preach the parables? How does these parables push back on our understanding of how a Kingdom uses power? What kind of power actually changes a person...or even the world?
