Pastor Paul continues unpacking how God’s kingdom grows when we intentionally sow it into every part of our lives—just like Jesus’s parable of the mustard seed. Telling us a humorous story about a lizard unexpectedly uniting strangers in a waiting room, Paul highlights how even small shared moments can reveal our deep desire for connection, and how something far greater—God’s presence—is what draws us into true community. Reflecting on the early church, he highlights the unchanging essentials of fellowship, generosity, serving, and staying committed even when relationships get rocky, or church gets difficult. We're called as believers to reject spiritual transience, to embrace covenant community, and to join God in building a kingdom that shelters, strengthens, and grows beyond anything we can imagine.
