    How should we prepare for the birthday of King Jesus? John the Baptist calls us to repentance, to preparing the way for him into our lives and making straight a highway into our hearts.

    [Sermon preached on 17 December 2017, 3rd Sunday in Advent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Every year again I am surprised how much time and energy goes into preparing for Christmas. So many things to do… and in the end so few things that really matter. The famous American author John Grisham wrote ...read more

    The sermon explores baptism in light of Jesus’ baptism. If Jesus needed to be baptized, what does this say about us? We sinners are called to repentence and baptism.

    Jesus baptism helped him fulfill all righteousness. Likewise, our baptism helps us to fulfill all righteousness, that is, to become the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ.

    Fulfilling All Righteousness Matt. 3:15 John was a wild and wooly evangelist preaching “hell fire and brimstone” to all who would listen. He was the very personification of Elijah in his garment of coarse camel hair and leather belt. This is how Elijah was identified by King Ahaziah in II Kings ...read more

    Sixth in the "Back to the Basics" series, exploring the foundational beliefs of Christians. This sermon addresses the question, "What do Christians believe about the baptism and holy communion?"

    Last week, while flipping through the channels on tv, I came across the movie Gladiator with Russell Crowe, just as it was getting started.

    John's Questions; Jesus' Answers

     | 16,259 views

    Sometimes Jesus gives us answers we don’t want to hear...sometimes He answers the questions we should have asked.

    I want you to consider John the Baptist. It is so easy for us to take a cursory look at this man, as we pass through the early chapters of the Gospels, and move on to study the ministry of Jesus with no more thought given to the Baptist, other than remembering him as the one who had the solemn ...read more

    John 5: The Divinity Of Christ

     | 4,397 views

    A large share of the population, and even of Christians, believe that Jesus was not God incarnate, but a mere man. In John 5, Jesus answers those accusing Him of blasphemy with a claim of divinity that leaves no room for that belief.

    I) The divinity of Jesus is a fundamental and essential tenet of Christianity. It is also one of the most difficult aspects of Christianity for the world to accept. A) A survey conducted in 2020 by Ligonier Ministries found that 52 percent of U.S. adults believe that Jesus is not God. Not only ...read more

    Even in this day and age, the voice of hope has not been silenced. The cry still comes to each one of us in the wilderness of our lives, to repent and reconcile with the one who is holding the door to the Kingdom.
