"He put before them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and rest in its branches." -Matthew 13:31-32

Jesus' parables are one of the ways Jesus trains his disciples. The parables, like the sermon on the mount, have always been crucial for the church to imagine the kind of community it is called to be. We discover again and again that Jesus' parables significance points to everyday life. The parables are meant to be lived.
The original audience may have been perplexed by this story. They would have known that no-one would intentionally plant a mustard shrub. In fact, the Jewish Mishnah forbade the growing of mustard seeds in the garden because they were 'useless annoying weeds'. In the Hebrew Scriptures the "birds of the air" can be a reference to Gentiles/Non-Jews, the foreigner. This parable suggests that the kingdom of heaven is available to everyone. Even those who may be considered outsiders or not "Worthy". Jesus is calling us to see the significance in the insignificant. The parables of the kingdom of heaven make clear that the kingdom of heaven is not "up there". Through the parables Jesus is teaching us to "be for the world the material reality of the kingdom of heaven brought down to earth." As Jesus is himself the parable of the father so the church is meant to be the parable of Christ. A people in space and time welcoming the outcast, the foreigner, and the stranger. These kind of communities will look like unwanted weeds to the world, or even to other christians. However, this may be exactly the church Jesus is asking us to embody.

No Mess, Lots of Fun!
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
My dog absolutely loves these toys! The squeakers and crinkle sounds keep him entertained for hours, and I appreciate that they have no stuffing—so no messy cleanup when he plays a little rough. The variety pack is great because it gives him different animals to choose from, and the toys are surprisingly durable even with lots of chewing. They’re lightweight, easy for him to carry around, and perfect for playtime or keeping him busy when I’m working. Definitely a great value for the price, and I’ll be buying again when he wears them out. Highly recommend!

Great
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
These are big deal toys for our dogs. Use them when have to go out for a whole day. Have bought three sets over about two years. Takes them a several days to gut and get to the squeaker. They keep the skin around for months if we let them.

Dogs love them!
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
May dogs loved these. The squeaks last long enough but get lots of wear and tear. Worth money for the fun. My dog is 12 and still enjoys perfect size, weight, and flexibility.

GREAT Value even for a big boy.
Size: Large, Color: 5 Pack
My new 80lb husky/lab rescue LOVED his birthday present. They crinkle has he plays air-fetch w/himself! He does instantly puncture the squeekies at either end, but he's a large dog who chews. And these are SAFE for that. I figure 5 will last 2 months, but for the price? Who cares! He's worth it! Next time I'll go brighter colors because he tosses far &wide.
