    Holy Spirit September 13, 2015 A Last Sunday we learned how the Holy Spirit is 1/3 of the Holy Trinity; The Spirit is not an “it”, the Spirit is a person; He was present at creation, empowered Jesus’ ministry, birthed the Church at Pentecost, convicted you when you were lost & ...read more

    As Christians we've all been called to be Holy, but what does that calling entail?

    For those of you who have kids, do you remember when your children were little, and you envisioned all they could be? You never pictured them as being average, normal yes, average no. You had high expectations for what your child could be and would be. If they played hockey they’d be the ...read more

    Does Hell motivate you?

    Holy Hell? Odd title for a sermon, perhaps, but it got your attention. Hell must be holy since I have heard that phrase many times over the years as a remark of astonishment whether the cause of the astonishment was positive or negative. In that holiness besides being a character trait and the ...read more

    Jude speaks about the coming Judgment and how it's only by God's mercy that we are considered saints, or holy ones.

    “Oh, when the saints go marching in Oh, when the saints go marching in Lord I want to be in that number When the saints go marching in.” Do you know what that song is about? Here’s a clue: it wasn’t originally a pep song for sports teams called the “Saints.” ...read more

    To be a top Soldier in the Army of the Lord, one cannot often be AWOL from formation. Excessive absenteeism from Church leads to a weak line of defense against the battles of everyday life in the ungodly environment we face in this world.

    Have you been in any battles lately? Did you win, or were you put down? Sometimes it seems that our daily walk with the Lord is definitely a form of warfare. In your biggest battle, were you about ready to surrender and give it up? Some folks do. Some give up without a fight, some give up after a ...read more

    This sermon (preached the Sunday after the 2009 ELCA Churchwide Assembly) illustrates the Ephesians "Armor of God" imagery with the actions of the ELCA.

    Several weeks ago, when I chose today’s Ephesians text to be my preaching text, I didn’t realize that the text corresponded with the weekend after our ChurchWide Assembly and how absolutely appropriate it would be today to talk about Holy Armor. Many of you have noticed that our ...read more

    God wants to use you, but if you don't know you're special, if you don't know and act like you're different, how can He?

    In our house, we had normal, everyday, sometimes chipped dishes that we used for all of our meals. THEN we had what we called the “good china.” The “good china” (which was grannies) only came out on special occasions. We didn’t even keep them with the ordinary ...read more
