     | 4,759 views

    A sermon preached 9/11/2011 for a joint service of the McConnellsburg Lutheran Parish that speaks of the topic of forgiveness.

    Our Gospel reading has quite a parable to it. One that has a lesson that seems so simple and practical, yet, when the rubber meets the road, we find out it’s not so easy. It even seems as if Peter doesn’t quite get it at first. And on this day, 10 years after the terrorist attacks in ...read more

    I’d like for you to join with me in thinking back to your high school years for a moment, and in doing so, how many of you at your high school had a poll asking for who in your graduating class was most likely to do certain things? What was yours? I graduated from Garner-Hayfield High School in ...read more

    How would you summarize the Gospel message? Do it in one sentence. Now, take what you have, and shorten it. Can you do it? Paul can. He summarizes the Gospel message with just four small words....God...is...for...us!

    The message of salvation is the most important thing that we will ever hear in our lives. It is also something that we are called to share as well. If you had to summarize the Gospel message in one sentence, how would you do it? What words or phrases might you use? What things would you ...read more

    A Christmas sermon preached 12/25/2008 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa on Christmas morning.

    In most public buildings, in order to gain an occupancy permit, you are required to have all the exits in your building clearly marked with “Exit” signs. Now our church building was built before that became a regulation, which is why you don’t see Exit signs here, but if you did, there would be ...read more

    Some of you have probably been in the mall and seen those T-shirt kiosks that are out in the hallway.

A while ...read more

    A sermon for The Transfiguration of Our Lord, Series B. Preached at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon 2/22/09

    Transfiguration. Now there’s a word you don’t hear every day. In fact, other than one day out of the church year, you might not otherwise hear it.

    At the beginning of the service, I mentioned that tonight, we were going to be looking at what is perhaps the least known or understood part of the Small Catechism, which is “The Office of the Keys.” When I said that, perhaps some of you were wondering “Did Pastor Martin misplace the keys to his ...read more

    A sermon preached September 13, 2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa. It was Sunday School/Christian Education Rally Sunday. This sermon focuses on the necessity of sound teaching from the Word in the life of the congregation.

    One of the things we put a great deal of importance on in our American society today is education. We encourage our kids to “stay in school” and to do well in school. We now also live in an age where most of our high school graduates go off to college, or some type of specialized education in order ...read more

    There’s a lot of talk in our world today about the topics of love. You’ll even hear those words used quite a bit by a lot of preachers in a lot of different churches. In fact, Jesus Himself in today’s Gospel reading gives us a commandment to “love one another as I have ...read more

    Last week, when my wife and I were doing a 10 hour car trip with our four-year-old nephew, we did everything that we could to keep him entertained. As you do that, you can really scrape the bottom of the barrel in trying to find ways to keep him entertained and happy. At one point, we were ...read more
