Luke 13:18-22

The Stories of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast

18 Then Jesus asked, "What is God's kingdom like? What can I compare it to?

19 It is like a mustard seed. Someone took the seed and planted it in a garden. It grew and became a tree. The birds sat in its branches."

20 Again he asked, "What can I compare God's kingdom to?

21 It is like yeast that a woman used. She mixed it into a large amount of flour. The yeast worked its way all through the dough."

The Narrow Door

22 Then Jesus went through the towns and villages, teaching the people. He was on his way to Jerusalem.
