    Jesus’ resurrection confirms his authority to give life to those who keep his word.

    Scripture Introduction I was reminded a couple of week’s ago that some Jewish people find the Gospels offensive, even “anti-Semitic.” One writer described John’s gospel as a “polemical pamphlet against Judaism.” I disagree; John does show us the conflict between Jesus and certain Jewish leaders, ...read more

    A powerful sermon on the true mission of the church, based upon a sermon from the late Dr. E. V. Hill and the iconic skit by Abbot and Costello.

    Who’s On First Luke 19:10 Back in 1986 I heard Rev. E. V. Hill preach at a pastor’s conference. It was great. He preached a sermon he called, “A Spiritual Homerun.” Today I want to use that sermon as a skeleton for my own. E. V. told about preaching at a conference in Lucerne, Switzerland. He ...read more

    The Aaronic blessing is part and parcel of our Sunday liturgy. What does God do when he blesses us with those words? What do we receive from him in the Benediction?

    [Sermon preached on 27 May 2018, Holy Trinity Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Today, I would like you to turn to the Old Testament text. Here we find the benediction which I use to bless the congregation at the end of our worship service. As you can see, it is not a blessing that I made up ...read more

    Who’s Who In Heaven? By Robert A. Glass (Revelations 22:1-7) Heaven, just the name by itself is a joy to hear. The word just glistens the tongue. Imagination cannot fathom, Heaven. The joy of Heaven, the bliss of Heaven, the magnitude of Heaven, ALL are beyond the mind of man. A ...read more

    God's people are forgiven sinners who have accepted Christ's sacrifice for their sins. Repentant people are accepted by God, but those who think they are good enough to enter heaven on their own merit will be cast out.

    Millions around the world know of Jesus but only a fraction of those actually know him. The mission of every Church should be to know Jesus and make him known. On a personal level, who is Jesus to you?

    Todays gospel reading in Luke is the same story also found in Matthew ch.16. The Matthew account has much more detail and so I will use that so we can better understand the story. The geographical setting of today’s gospel story is Caesarea Philippi. This town is located in the North East ...read more
