Who Can You Invite To God’s Family? Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Sep 5, 2022

When You Run Ahead Of God’s Plan Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jun 11, 2023

Remain Steadfast In God’s Word & Work

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jun 26, 2023

It’s fitting for us to consider the Apostle Paul’s final words to his co-worker Timothy on this day (June 25), for the Lutherans of 1530 who presented the Augsburg Confession took seriously Paul’s encouragement and so should we: “Remain steadfast in God’s Word and work.”

On this day 493 years ago, Lutheran princes gathered in south-central Germany, in a town 50 miles outside of Munich and presented a confession of faith to the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V. This presentation of the Augsburg Confession on June 25, 1530 is generally recognized as the birth of the ...read more

Names Of God: Adonai, God Our Master And Owner Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 1, 2022

The name Adonai occurs about 300 times in the Old Testament. Every time it’s used it’s written as a possessive plural form. So it could actually be read as “my Lords” which reminds us that God is a trinity, of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

"Servant" in our English New Testament usually represents the Greek doulos (bondslave). Sometimes it means diakonos (deacon or minister); this is strictly accurate, for doulos and diakonos are synonyms. Both words denote a man who is not at his own disposal, but is his master's ...read more
