You don’t have to look hard to see the brokenness of the world. Injustice, war, hunger, divorce, violence… these are but a few of many painful and heavy burdens. When you see the brokenness of the world, you might question the goodness of God. Jesus teaches a parable in Matthew about how we should respond when we notice evil around us. No matter the specifics of the situation, the story makes clear our response should be filled with hope and certainty that nothing is going to stop the Kingdom of God.
