The Mystery of the Wheat and the Weeds
Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermons - Catholic Preaching and HomiliesAbout this episode
In our Gospel for today, we hear the parable of the wheat and the tares. Jesus speaks of the mysterious, and often frustrating, intertwining of good and evil. Don't be too eager, he says, to tear out the weeds, for you might, in the process, compromise the wheat. Listen, as I try to search out the meaning of this important and complex parable.
