How to prevent burnout by observing the forth Commandment

INTRODUCTION Do you remember the old “Blue Laws?” When I was a child not many businesses were open on Sundays. Those that were opened were looked down upon. The “Blue Laws” were eventually challenged in court and done away with. Now, you can shop, eat out, conduct business, enjoy recreation or ...read more

Just Who Are The Saints, Anyway?

Contributed by Christopher Martin on Nov 2, 2009

An All Saints’ Day sermon preached 11/1/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa. Some of the material is from a sermon by Rev. Tim Pauls.

Today is November 1st on our calendars, but on the church calendar, today is “All Saint’s Day.” In the Lutheran church, we believe this is such an important day, that if November 1st doesn’t fall on a Sunday, we usually move it’s celebration to the first Sunday in November. It’s a day where we ...read more

It is very important to ensure that our friendship with Jesus is our priority.  Psalm 46 :1 says” God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble”

Proverbs 18:24 says: “A man who has friends must himself be friendly but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother" . Best friends are those who found a way to be with you during tough times. They are friends who will drive hundreds of miles to be with you, jumped on an airplane to ...read more

Trusting In The God Who Knows

Contributed by William Wyne on Feb 10, 2012

There is a God who knows what is best for us from beginning to end.

In Max Lucado’s book, The Eye of the Storm, he tells the story of Chippie the parakeet. "Chippie never saw it coming. One second he was peacefully perched in his cage, singing a song into the air; the next second he was sucked in, washed up, and blown over. "His problem began when his ...read more

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 17, 2021

Christmas time is upon us. When asked to name something about Christmas many people will mention gifts or presents. It’s always exiting to receive a gift! Amen?

Who Lost His Head?

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 18, 2008

When we lose our ways emotionally or spiritually, we hurt ourselves and others. Herod, Herodias and Salome demonstrate the ways we can be seduced into losing our heads. John only lost his physical head but not his integrity.

Do you know the poem, "If’, by Rudyard Kipling? I’m sure you’ve heard it a hundred times. But let me quote just a part of "If’. "If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their ...read more

Promises For Those Who Trust PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 17, 2025

God intimately sees, hears, and cares for us in every trial, offering steadfast love, comfort, and deliverance to the brokenhearted and trusting.

Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides a storm. Bills on the table, biopsy on the calendar, battles in the soul. Others carry a quiet ache—an empty chair at dinner, a friendship gone cold, a door that never opened. If you feel overlooked, unheard, unseen—hear this: the God who flung ...read more

AND REMEMBER – to lean in, because what you are about to hear is God breathed! The first passage is from John 11… Jesus good friend Lazarus ...read more

Who Dug Up The Roof

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Apr 3, 2010

Who were the men who were willing to step outside the norm and dig a hole in a roof for the benefit of a friend?

As they moved closer to the crowd their hopes begin to sink, what they thought would be a fairly simple task had taken on monumental proportions. When the suggestion came up to take their lame friend to Jesus everyone thought it was a great idea, all they had to do to get their friend to walk was ...read more

The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Series

Contributed by Steven Chapman on Jun 22, 2015

This message speaks of the son of interest to Jesus in his most well-known story - not on the prodigal who left home, but the prodigal who stayed home. Of particular interest is the difference in this son's response and the Fathers to the other.

The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Luke 15:1, 2, and 25-32 "Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such despicable people - even eating with them!" These two verses from ...read more

Who Sits On Your Throne? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2025

Holiness isn’t something that God has, but holy is what He is. The word holy has concentric circles of meaning. At its heart, when the word holy applies to God, it is almost an adjective for God. It is almost a way of saying, “God alone is God. There is no other.”

We conclude a series that explores the great character of God. Every sermon has been taken from the Psalms in this series. No other book in your Bible has as many authors as does Psalms. The superscriptions above verse 1 of many of the Psalms tell us that Moses, Solomon, Asaph, Hezekiah, and ...read more
