    You Are My Son, The Beloved

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jan 2, 2021
     | 4,351 views

    Because the Father loves the Son and calls Him "beloved," we who are in Christ are beloved also. For The Baptism of the Lord Sunday, the First Sunday after the Epiphany.

    You Are My Son, the Beloved Mark 1:4-11 We have come to the Sunday on the Church calendar where we remember that Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan. This account is contained in all four Gospels, even though John does not explicitly mention it, just that He came to John where the ...read more

    How many times have we spit fire and have said more than we meant to say? How many times have we lost our cool? James is talking about teaching and self-control as it relates to speech.

    SPITFIRE (September 16, 2012) Text: James 3:1- 12 Jas 3:1-12  Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers and sisters, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.  (2)  For all of us make many mistakes. Anyone who makes no mistakes in speaking is ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,108 views

    We have been given a priceless gift of grace which needs to be fleshed out in our relationships.

    The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant: An Exposition of Matthew 18:21-35 We live in a world which demands “justice.” People have always demanded justice. Often this demand to justice leads to violence. On the other hand, people demand “grace” for themselves. This is the way it always has been. It ...read more

    A look at what it means to be a coworker with Christ.

    2 CORINTHIANS 6:1-13 I would like to ask you a question as we begin today. Answer this question. Who are you?

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Oct 22, 2021
     | 3,114 views

    The iconic statement is our consideration this morning: “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)

    Pay Attention To Your Heart 1 Samuel 16:1-13 Introduction A few years ago Forbes Magazine published an article by Ty Kiisel about how appearances impact our work lives. In the studies he looked at he noted that people who are tall are generally paid more. More, those who are blonde, who work ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,027 views

    In perhaps the most challenging parable to understand, Jesus calls us to use our worldly wealth for divine purposes, to be faithful where we are, and to keep God first in our lives.

    Luke 16:1-13 Wisdom in Wealth What if you came to church one Sunday, and your pastor got up to give the sermon and said, “I don’t have a clue what this means!” Well, I’m pretty close to that with today’s passage. Maybe you could relate to that kind of pastor, since sometimes the Bible is just hard ...read more

    There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is the voice of God - the one we should listen to above all.

    OVERCOME BY LISTENING TO GOD 1 Samuel 3:1-16 Introduction There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is that inner voice, the one we talk to when we are alone.

    This is the first of 7 I AM statements in the gospel? What does this mean.

    I AM the Bread of Life John 6:22-51 There are seven I AM statements in the Gospel of John which have predicates which describe something about Jesus. There are also several occurrences of the I AM without a predicate. The way the statement is made in Greek, as it is not grammatically necessary to ...read more

    Christ Is Risen!

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,113 views

    The Easter story calls us to follow in the footsteps of the women who were the first to encounter the risen Jesus: in seeking his presence day by day, in worshiping him as our Lord and Savior, and in going out to call people in.

    [Sermon preached on 1 April 2018, Easter Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] “Were you there when they crucified our Lord?” It is a rhetorical question. Of course, we were not there when they crucified our Lord. The drama that we watched at the beginning of the service gives us some idea of the ...read more

    "I Know What You Are Going Through…"

    Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 22, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,986 views

    Too easily, we try to comfort people in sorrow and pain, saying that we know what they are going through. The fact is that mostly we don't. But Jesus knows what we are going through, because he has been there. What does that imply for us?

    [Sermon preached on 18 February 2018, 1st Sunday in Lent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] I was still a student when we gathered with a group of theological students for a training seminar on pastoral counseling. One of the members shared some of her childhood experiences that had recently come to the ...read more

     | 15,099 views

    On All Saints Day, we join in a family celebration made possible by our Triune God. All Saints Day is not a day of mourning the dead, but a day of celebrating the life we have in Christ, and a chance to look ahead at the joys before us!

    Some kids were outside at recess playing on the school playground, as kids do. And, as kids do, they began teasing one another. But the thing is, kids, you know, when they’re teasing, don’t always have a good understanding of how far is too far. And so, these kids start to pick ...read more

     | 1,084 views

    Each of these incidents is a sign from God reminding us that life is temporary but that God is eternal.

    What’s the first thing you think of when you hear of falling towers and people dying? Right. Nine-eleven. And looking around on the web I found that even though this is the gospel passage for the third Sunday in Lent of Cycle C of the lectionary, by far the most sermons were written on this topic ...read more

    The whole world was shaken and changed because of what God did. Have you been shaken? Have you changed?

    When I preach from the lectionary, which I do most of the time unless I'm working on a series, one of the first things I do is to try and find the common thread among the different passages. And on this glorious day when we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, the central message is ...read more
