For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.” [1] “So that ...read more

    While Jesus announces for the first time to his disciples his call to the cross, He calls us to confess who he is and calls us to live a crucified life.

    I would guess that we are probably similar in that we get so many unwanted calls each day. Somehow, I’ve been getting calls for some group who says they can get me on Social Security Disability.

    November 06, 2021 Since coming to the priesthood in 1505, Martin Luther had lived in turmoil.

He left no doubt that all ...read more
