    14th Sunday after Pentecost/Proper 15 Series A. Preached at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, IA on 8/17/2008

    “Great is your faith!” How would you feel if I as your Pastor were to tell someone that about you? I’m guessing that you’d think you must be doing something right. And to be honest, I’ve been around you folks long enough now to be able to say that about quite a few of you. Our congregation is ...read more

    A sermon for the 3rd Sunday of Easter preached 4/26/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa

    Christ is Risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia! Since we are still in the Easter season, it’s quite appropriate that we begin our message for today with that great news. Two weeks ago, you heard me share with you, through the eyes of Mary Magdalene, how difficult it could be to really believe ...read more

    Midweek of Easter 5B. Preached 5/14/2009 for Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church Friendship Home Communion Service, Friendship Home Chapel, Audubon Iowa.

    For those of you who either were involved in farming at some point in your life, or enjoy gardening, then the analogy Jesus uses in our Gospel reading for this morning is one that you can really identify with. In it, we have Jesus describing our relationship with Him as that of a branch to a vine. ...read more

    A sermon for The Transfiguration of Our Lord, Series B. Preached at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon 2/22/09

    Transfiguration. Now there’s a word you don’t hear every day. In fact, other than one day out of the church year, you might not otherwise hear it. Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary defines the word “Transfiguration” as “a change in form or appearance” or “an exalting, glorifying, or spiritual ...read more

    The Gentile Christmas

     | 7,189 views

    An Epiphany sermon I preached on 1/7/2009 at the Salem Lutheran Home chapel, Elk Horn, Iowa.

    In some ways, you could say that Epiphany is the “last hurrah” of Christmas. It’s the day when we remember the visit of the wise men, or magi as they are called in our text, to worship the Christ child and present the gifts of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh. It’s a great scene, one that’s often ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,064 views

    Seeking personal pleasure is seen as the highest priority of modern culture. In our passage today Paul affirms the opposite to be true: humanity’s chief goal ought to be to take pleasure in pleasing God. The question we are going to address today is ho

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,479 views

    Everyone has a divine vocation, Jesus said -“Many are called but few are chosen.” Those who are rejected are so not because they do not have a call from God but because they refuse to accept it. The goal of my sermon today is to help you understand and

     | 11,217 views

    3rd Sunday in Lent, Series B. Preached 3/15/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa

    Our Gospel reading for this morning is one that tends to catch a lot of people off guard. When you think of Jesus, you don’t usually think of Him as someone who gets angry, who resorts to violent behavior. We think of him as a tender, compassionate, easy going person who wouldn’t hurt a fly. ...read more

     | 8,280 views

    An All Saints’ Day sermon preached 11/1/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa. Some of the material is from a sermon by Rev. Tim Pauls.

    Today is November 1st on our calendars, but on the church calendar, today is “All Saint’s Day.” In the Lutheran church, we believe this is such an important day, that if November 1st doesn’t fall on a Sunday, we usually move it’s celebration to the first Sunday in November. It’s a day where we ...read more

    A Sermon for Christ the King Sunday preached on 11/22/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa.

    Today is Christ the King Sunday, the final Sunday of the church year, so it would seem appropriate to sing the great hymn “Crown Him with Many Crowns”, and in addition, to talk about kingdoms. Today in our Gospel reading, we are taken into a conversation between two different kings. And it is ...read more
