    God is our Shepherd, we are the sheep of his flock. Psalm 23 contains great promises for where we are going when life on earth is over. But it also gives a tremendous promise of comfort: On our journey God is always with us.

    [Sermon preached on 15 April 2018, 2nd Sunday after Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday) / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] We all have the need to think and talk about God in a more or less concrete way. Considering that God is a mystery deeper than the deepest ocean and vaster than the universe, that is ...read more

     | 5,544 views

    I was originally drawn to this passage because of this conversation between Jesus and Peter. I wanted to understand the deeper meaning of what was being said here. I have learned that and much more. I found four layers to the onion.

    Have any of you tried a fried blooming onion? They taste great. If you haven’t had one - they cut open a sweet Vidalia onion and dip it in batter and deep fry it and all the layers spread out. You are probably wondering why I am talking about onions and making everyone hungry; it is because onions ...read more
