No one wants to lead a life of futility. Whether you are a Christian or not, there is something intrinsic to humanity that makes us repel futility. So how do we know that the Gospel is making a difference in our lives? How do we really know that following Jesus is better than following something else. In the Parable of the Mustard Seed/Yeast Jesus shows us what success looks like in his Kingdom. He reorients and redefines what it means to find significance and success in our lives and he ultimately shows us what qualifies someone for love.
