    Out Of The Mouth

    Looking at some of the things we can create with our mouths.

    Out of the mouth When is a parable not a parable? That question always comes to my mind when I read today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel. We are told that Peter said to Jesus “Explain the parable to us”. But it does not matter how many times I read the passage, I cannot find a parable. Instead, I ...read more

    While we are waiting for answers from God, there are some valuable lessons for us to learn.

    Most of us have experienced the following: You want to get down the road, but the road is curvy, and you’re behind a slow driver. You have to slow down and wait. How about making an important phone call, and all you get is a machine. The machine says, “If you live within the U.S. press 1; If ...read more

    Look at the conduct of the Syrophonecian woman, which caused Jesus to say, "Great is your faith... Be it unto you..."

    NOTE: THanks to Wayne Huntley for the idea for this message - I heard him preach a similar message as a teenager (30 years ago) and it has stayed with me... 22 And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David!

    14th Sunday after Pentecost/Proper 15 Series A. Preached at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, IA on 8/17/2008

    “Great is your faith!” How would you feel if I as your Pastor were to tell someone that about you? I’m guessing that you’d think you must be doing something right. And to be honest, I’ve been around you folks long enough now to be able to say that about quite a few of you. Our congregation is ...read more

    This is one of the most difficult passages in the Gospels because it seems to portray a harsh, callous and uncaring Jesus. But it’s not. Find out why.

    When one is told that their faith is great, it bears our study and meditation. What were the marks of this Canaanite ladies’ faith? There are at least four marks of great faith!

    The Marks of Great Faith Matthew 15:21-28 Jesus Christ did not exaggerate or mince words. He spoke the truth and the truth alone. When He applauds someone’s faith as "great," then it ought to make us take notice. Only twice, both with Gentiles, does Jesus Christ call someone’s faith "great." ...read more

    We sometimes wonder why our petitions to God do not received answer. We called,we cried,we cling on His Name whom we believed, but there is no answer to our faith. If God hear us why doesnt he respond or reply to us.Does our action affects the answer?

    Our faith if often tested, even by obstacles placed in our way by God Himself.

    THE LADDER OF FAITH When this troubled woman came to Jesus for help, she, like most others wanted and longed for an immediate solution.

    What do you know about prejudice? Have you ever experienced it? What was that like? Have you ever been guilty of it? Be careful how you answer – you might be surprised at the truth.

    One of the things that I so enjoy about the study of God’s Word is how it is knitted together so finely that there is nothing that doesn’t fit, nothing that is out of place. Our story today demonstrates this quite well indeed. Preparing for our time together today, I ran into a problem that occurs ...read more
