Listen "8-31-25 - What Flowering Plants Teach Us About Pride"

Episode Synopsis

The readings for this week for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost are Jeremiah 2:4-13 and Psalm 81:1, 10-16, or Sirach 10:12-18 or Proverbs 25:6-7 and Psalm 112, with Hebrews 13:1-8, 15-16, and Luke 14:1, 7-14.  This week we look at flowering plants.  Have you ever considered that plants don't all flower at once?  Why don't plants flower all summer long?  How did plants get to a point of understanding when their "competition" was blooming so that they could make sure not to flower at the same time.  There is a humbleness that we can see in nature that needs some exploring that we get into this week.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

Remember to answer this week's question:
Where is pride taking over your Sabbath? #FaithandSciPod
