    Christians have humility and charity flowing through their veins. This is what makes them different.

    Luke 14:1, 7-14 CHRISTIANS “WALK TO THE BEAT OF A DIFFERENT DRUMMER.” Mike was the kind of person who “walked to the beat of a different drummer.” You could see that at his place of work. Most of the people there had a very pushy, “me-first” attitude. “You’re going to have to look our for ...read more

    Look Who's Coming To Dinner

    We sometimes read the Scriptures at its surface level. It isn’t until we dig in and study that we find the riches hidden there. The Scripture where the Parisee invites Jesus to a Sabbath meal is rich in wisdom if we just search for it.

    Sermon: Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner Scripture: Luke 14: 1-14 Good morning… Once there was a dinner speaker who was in such a hurry to get to his engagement that when he arrived and sat down at the head table, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his false teeth. Turning to the man next to ...read more

    Although the Pharisees had set a trap for him, Jesus used this dinner as time to teach on compassion for our fellow man.

    Eating with the Enemy Luke 14:1-24 Introduction: Several times in the book of Luke, we see that Jesus goes to eat in the house of a Pharisee. Here in Luke 14, we see the last of these encounters. What’s really interesting about this passage is that, during this one dinner, Jesus teaches on three ...read more

    Jesus was not a candidate for the most popular award in his class. No wonder they nailed him to a tree.

    Sermon for Luke 14:7-14 September 2nd 2007 Last week I mentioned one of the greatest privileges of being a pastor is the opportunity to preside over Word and Sacrament. The Sacraments are the easy part, because I really do nothing. After all, its God’s work, not mine. But the Word, the Word on ...read more

    You see, it turns out that much that we think is reality is illusion; and things which seem of little significance may play the key role at the end of all time. A sermon in three parts.

    (This message was preached in three parts separated by singing.) I. Finding Our True Place (This first segment is taught as a children’s object lesson.

    Anyone who has watched "Seinfield" on TV has probably heard the catch phrase "No soup for you." But Jesus tells a parable about a group of people who hear that catch phrase all to clear.

    Excuses. We all have them. We make excuses for our actions. We make excuses for our lack of actions. We make excuses for our words. Basically we are good at making excuses. The Metropolitan Insurance Company has published a list of the excuses they were given for auto accidents (1) “An ...read more

    The less fortunate in our society need both our natural gifts and the dignity that comes with being acknowledged. They need the gift of our friendship, and we need them as well.

    When I was preparing my sermon for this morning, I couldn’t help but think of the Christmas song “Santa Claus is Coming to Town”. Now before you start thinking that I’ve been working too hard and need a vacation let me explain. There is a verse in that song that ties in ...read more
