In this brief sermon excerpt, Paul Woodley reflects on the biblical parable of the wheat and the weeds (Matthew 13:24‑30). He recounts how the farmer refuses to pull the weeds early, fearing that the wheat would be uprooted, and instead allows both to grow together until the harvest. At harvest, the reapers will separate the weeds for burning and gather the wheat for the barn. Woodley uses this narrative to illustrate the virtue of patience, warning against premature judgment and emphasizing that true separation and judgment belong to the divine timing of the harvest.

Chapters

They said, well, do you want us to just, you know, reap it right now? And the story goes on, verse 29, but he said, no, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. He says in verse 30, let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn. So here the wheat is growing.
