     | 31,466 views

    This sermon, designed for Father's Day, addresses two components I wish I would have known before I became a dad myself. Two simple principles that can be easily applied to a father of any age and includes material for men, women, and various life stages.

    There is no script or instruction manual, for being a good father. Most men are thrust into the task of fatherhood that will change how we view our earthly father, Heavenly Father, and even ourselves forever. It is an adventure that will challenge us, drain us, beat us up, lending us to a few ...read more

Seven times?” 22 “No, not seven times,” Jesus replied,“but seventy times seven! 23“Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven can be compared to a king who ...read more

    What if God did to us what this man did to another?

And there is no doubt that much of my previous understanding of these parables has been ...read more

    A sermon preached 9/11/2011 for a joint service of the McConnellsburg Lutheran Parish that speaks of the topic of forgiveness.

    Our Gospel reading has quite a parable to it. One that has a lesson that seems so simple and practical, yet, when the rubber meets the road, we find out it’s not so easy. It even seems as if Peter doesn’t quite get it at first. And on this day, 10 years after the terrorist attacks in ...read more

    From the parable of the prodigal son, we see the Father’s love and longing for his lost son to return. The salvation of the lost is a big thing to Him. Do we know our Father’s heart today?

    Luke 15:11-32 UNDERSTANDING THE FATHER’S HEART What is God really like? The Bible says He is a Father to us, we are His children.
