    A Sermon for Proper 11, Series B preached 7/22/2012 as a guest speaker at Redeemer Lutheran Church, Estherville, Iowa. Redeemer was in the midst of a pastoral vacancy at the time I preached this sermon.

    I found it rather interesting that out of all the Sundays I could have come to visit your congregation and share a message from God’s Word with you, it had to be this one. In the readings you just heard that were appointed for today, we are given word pictures of sheep and shepherds. I just ...read more

    What would cause someone to visit a church and leave saying "Nothing to see here." thus planning never to return?

    Sunday, Sept 16th is National Back to Church Sunday. On this Sunday I would encourage you to make an effort to invite someone to attend with you. Last week we discovered why people do not go to church. We found some rather startling statistics. I would like to remind you of these facts once ...read more

    New Year: A Second Chance For Leaders

    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,188 views

    The New Year presents us with a second chance to Give more, help more and love even more in such a tangable way.

    How would God start off the New Year? All of the churches I have had the pleasure of being a part of had the same tradition of either unveiling a new mission statement or slogan to start the year off with a new focus. Most of the time this usually is divided into reaching the world, community and ...read more

    If churches want to help their leaders be all they can be, they must pay them well, treat them fairly, and pick them wisely.

    When I get a chain letter in my Email, I usually ignore it; but sometime ago, I came across this chain letter, which gave me a chuckle. It was written to church members looking for the perfect pastor. It said… “The perfect pastor preaches exactly 10 minutes, but thoroughly expounds ...read more

    The Heart Of God's Man (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 1, 2020
     | 3,900 views

    The heart of a pastor is unique. In this enlightening text, Paul shares his heart for the church in Thessalonica. Through his candid and honest words, we find a description of what a pastor's heart should contain.

    The Heart of God’s Man (Part 1) 1 Thessalonians 3: 1-13 The heart of a pastor is a very unique thing. He feels many of the same emotions anyone else does. It isn’t that the pastor is given something that is impossible for others to possess, but his heart is special because it is different. I ...read more

    Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Evidence Of A Shepherd's Heart

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 6, 2021
     | 1,858 views

    When Paul arrived in Athens, he was grieved over the rank idolatry of the city with statues and temples dedicated to various gods and goddesses. He knew that the Gospel had to be proclaimed. Souls hung in the balance. This is the heart of a man of God and the example we need to follow today.

    When Paul arrived in Athens to wait for Silas and Timothy to join him, he looked around the city and did not marvel at the beauty of the city's temples or the culture or anything typical of a tourist's curiosity. If he were to be classified as a "sightseer", the sights he saw ...read more
