The third episode of Stories for the Waiting Room examines Jesus' parable of the Leaven, which concern's a nameless woman's domestic activity. In keeping with Jesus' normal storytelling style, this brief account presents a stereotypical housewife engaged in the task of preparing bread. Yet the proportions of her recipe are all out of whack, and Jesus' positive use of traditionally negative symbols would likely have struck his audiences as a curious way to illustrate what life in the Kingdom of God must be like.
