    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.

    Jesus does some cleaning out of the temple to clear out the things that restricted worship of God.

    Spring Cleaning… John 2:13-19 It seems a little strange to me but, it appears to be something that many people have built into their DNA. Mostly women… When the first flowers start to bud out many households enter into spring cleaning mode. Personally, I and many, if not most, men don’t ...read more
