    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Aug 30, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,095 views

    This sermon draws comparisons between the manna of the Old Testament and the grace of God in Christ Jesus. The manna of God’s grace is made available to us when we least deserve it. But then, that’s the nature of God’s grace.

    Manna: A Heavenly Meal For A Hungry Multitude Text: Ex.16: 1-4; Ps.78: 25 Intro: As we enter Exodus 16, we find the children of Israel doing what they did so often in their wilderness wanderings—complaining. This is quite a contrast from the “Song of Redemption” that they sang only two months ...read more

     | 13,422 views

    Just like stubborn and rebellious Israel of old, we do not deserve God’s grace and mercy. But in spite of ourselves, God is always ready to extend His mercy to us; especially in the midst of life’s increasing madness.

    Mercy In The Midst Of Madness Text: Ps.61: 3-4; Ps.103: 2, 4-5; Isa.41: 13 Intro: Last night, as I bowed my head in prayer to God, I began to share with the Lord the burdens that were weighing heavily upon my heart.

    This sermon came together after spending a week in Canada fishing so it’s about fish, water and boats.

    Three men were out fishing one day & caught a mermaid. The mermaid said she would grant them each a wish if they would let her go. So the 1st man said, “make me twice as smart as I already am." The mermaid said, your wish is granted & immediately the man started quoting Shakespeare & had this ...read more

    A funeral sermon I preached at my grandmother’s funeral on September 13th, 2003 at Prescott, Iowa.

Memories seem to be the theme of the day for us. It’s served as a basic theme for me to work with ever since ...read more

    A sermon for Pentecost 12B preached 8/31/2003 at St. Paul Lutheran Church, Garner, Iowa (LCMS).

    I think that it may be a safe assumption to make that when you all came here this evening, you didn’t expect to hear a sermon about grumbling. If you did, boy, someone must have let my secret out of the bag or you hacked into my computer or something……But, in all seriousness, we are confronted ...read more

    In the ninth chapter of Revelations John decribes an event using the specific hour, day, month, and year. This is amazing considering in heaven there is no measurement of time.

    An Appointed Time Revelations 9:13-21 See: Rev. 9:13-21 In heaven everything is seen from the perspective of eternity. But to put things in perspective for us the reader we see the measurement of time. Mention: Rev. 8:1 for about the space of half an hour Also: Rev. 11:2-3 forty-two months and a ...read more
