Why and What Do We Sing at our Worship?

Fourth Sunday of Easter Ordinary Form 2015 The Song of the Shepherd I would imagine from my time in this suburban parish that there are just a few of us who have lived for any period of time on a farm or ranch with sheep and wolves and coyotes.

Paul's Song Series

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Oct 12, 2017

We have heard the song "Don't worry, be happy!" and "Hakuna Matada." While their points are nice, they are easier said than done. How would Paul rewrite those lyrics? In Philippians four, we see his answer: don't be anxious, pray!

“Here’s a little song I wrote, you might want to sing it note for note. Don’t worry, be happy!” That line is from a famous song that we have all probably heard before. If you aren’t familiar with it, perhaps you might be more familiar with this more recent line sung by a warthog named Pumba and ...read more

Song Of The Reformation

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Oct 17, 2017

There are some TV show theme songs or commercial jingles that we can immediately recognize. Luther's "A Mighty Fortress" is one of them too, for it is the theme song of the Reformation. This sermon is based on Psalm 46, the one the song is from.

There are some theme songs that are just iconic and memorable. There are some that are so recognizable that when part of it is heard or sung, you can immediately recognize the TV show that it belongs to. For example, “Here’s a story, of a lovely lady, who had three very lovely girls…” belongs to ...read more

Mary's Song

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 13, 2015

The Magnificat. We should take Mary seriously. Jesus' mother is also our mother. She is a “mother” to all who accept Jesus as Lord. Her most significant role is to point us to her Son.

Christmas songs bring back memories. When I hear certain carols, I'm transported back to my childhood in Germany. I especially remember Stille Nacht, the German hymn by Fr Joseph Mohr that celebrates Jesus, born of a virgin, sleeping in heavenly peace. Here in Luke chapter one we see Mary's song, ...read more

The Song Of Trust Series

Contributed by Russ Barksdale on Mar 2, 2016

All relationships are risky, prompting believers to trust God for the outcomes.

Have you ever thought about the correlation between risk and trust? You can’t have one without the other. I turn 60 this summer and on my 60th birthday, if I can get Sue to agree, I want to go skydiving. Don’t worry, the bank made the church take out a key-man policy on me this last ...read more

Song Of Fools

Contributed by Bala Samson on Dec 3, 2015

Did you know the person who points out your mistakes gently and explains the repercussions of your sins actually is very concerned of your soul rather than the person who turns a blind eye to your mistakes?

Nice Man! Ecclesiastes 7:5”It is better to heed the rebuke of a wise person than to listen to the song of fools.” The conundrum today is who is the nice man !!!! As we watch and read of the verbal wars of very highly educated people on print and media and their derogatory and ...read more
