    Who would have thought that we could learn a lesson from a leper? And who would have thought that the lesson we would learn from him would be in the area of gratitude? But somehow the leper in this story today teaches us three important lessons about th

    Thanksgiving is a wonderful time of the year. Families gather together for what may be the one time they do so that year. School lets out for a few days. You get a paid day off of work. The fall is here in full force. It’s a great day to sit and watch some football or get out and play some. ...read more

    The Bible teaches that "GRATEFULNESS" is the normal quality of a Christian’s life

    "BE THANKFUL!" One of the most important qualities we can develop as a Christian is that of "Thankfulness!" There are few characteristics that will influence our lives more than this one ... it can affect every area of our lives positively if we are careful to nurture it in our life! For the ...read more

    The one leper who returned to give thanks encourages me to be thankful in 6 ways.

    One Gave Thanks November 22, 2009 I heard about an episode of the Simpsons, where the family was sitting down for supper and Homer asked Bart to give thanks before the meal. Bart bowed his head and said, “Dear God, we paid for all this stuff ourselves… so thanks for nothing.” Now to some people ...read more

    All ten of the lepers were cured, but only one was healed.

    Have you ever had to “suit up” to visit someone in the hospital? Sometimes in order to protect both the patient and the visitors, extensive preventative measures are taken. On some occasions I’ve had to put on a mask, gloves, head covering, booties and a protective gown. I felt like I was ...read more

    A Thanksgiving Eve sermon preached 11/25/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa.

    Our Gospel lesson for this evening introduces us to a group of 10 “mystery” men. I say this because we don’t know much about these guys. They may come from completely different backgrounds, be different ages, and for all we know, they may not get along very well. But, they had one common ...read more

    Is Thanksgiving A Foreign Idea To You?

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Dec 3, 2009
     | 2,410 views

    We are sometimes surprised when we hear a non-church person giving God praise for something done in their life and we are surprised by it. Maybe we are even a little embarrassed since we may have received a similar blessing but forgot to give thanks.

    Is Thanksgiving a Foreign Idea to You? Thanksgiving Day 2009 Luke 17:11-19 On January 31, 1957, the Canadian Parliament proclaimed: A Day of General Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed … to be observed on the 2nd Monday in October.

    The importance of gratitude and humility.

    We all know about the good Samaritan, but how many of us have heard of the grateful Samaritan? We are going to meet him today, but firstly I want to tell you about my friend Allen. Allen was quite different from most people. To have called him unconventional would have been an understatement, and ...read more

    10 were healed, but only 1 returned to thank the Lord. I want to be the one who expresses thanksgiving for all the Lord’s blessings.

    As we open our Bibles once again to the Gospel of Luke, we are reminded that it was penned by Luke the physician. Luke, a Greek, was a well educated man who was used of the Lord to pen two books of our New Testament, The Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts. As Mark had written for the Romans, ...read more

    Sermon about not taking God or the church for advantage

    We’ve convinced ourselves that “God helps those who help themselves.” Many people believe that’s even in the Bible. It’s not. In fact, I can’t think of anything more unbiblical.

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. (Psalm 19:14) What an awesome healing story in today’s Gospel! I’m not referring to the cure; I’m referring to the ...read more
