G. Thomas Halbrooks was Professor of Church History. Glenn T. Miller was Professor of Church History. The service begins with a prayer of confession and a second general prayer (00:00-01:59). Halbrooks delivers the Scripture reading from Matthew 13:24-30 (02:00-03:18). Halbrooks examines the history of the interpretation of the parable of the wheat and the tares, and he argues that the parable calls the church to patience, tolerance, and leaving the job of judgment to God (03:19-22:50). The service ends with a benediction (22:51-23:09).
