Today’s Gospel reading is taken from LK 13:18-21, the parable of the mustard seed. I am sure that we all have heard this many times. However, I cannot remember a time that I have heard it interpreted as Matthew Kelly had here.
“ A family where people are open to life and they have children and then the children have children and the children's children have children. And there's this tree of life, right? And the children and the grandchildren, the great-grandchildren, they're the birds that are sitting and playing in this tree of life.”
"Therefore, what is the kingdom of God like,” reads the gospel. Like family, I hope!
