Unless a grain of wheat . . .

For 10 August 2012, Memorial of St. Lawrence, based on John 12:24-26

(this preaching originally appeared on theWord on the feast of St. Lawrence in 2009)


Jesus said, “Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Those who love their life lose it, and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there will my servant be also. Whoever serves me, the Father will honor.”
