On the title

In the past several years, I have begun to get a glimpse of the Kingdom of God. I have begun to see its centrality in all of life, history and Scripture. Of all of Jesus' Kingdom parables, one that has impressed me most deeply is the parable of the leaven in Matthew 13:33.

I love the picture it presents of a pervasive power that works from the inside out, and has its effect on everything it touches. I long for this in my own heart, my family, our church and all the world: that Christ would be all in all.
