Lent 4 Midweek – 2023

“GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD” Sermon Text, St. John 4:31-34, 19:28-30 Lord Jesus, we thank You for everything, but our thanks are nothing compared with Your boundless love. Give us Your righteousness, and let Your mind be in us. Give us this grace that Your will more and more may be our food, our joy, and our strength. Amen. (Book of Family Prayer, p. 115) Dear fellow redeemed in Christ, who is our meat and drink indeed, faith…

Lent 4 – 2023

Sermon Text: John 9:1-7, 13-17, 20-41. Fellow redeemed in Christ, who is the Light who gives the light of faith: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Jesus our Lord. Amen. Jesus heals a man who was born blind. This is a story about faith.  In the Bible, God uses blindness to picture being in the dark spiritually. The blindness of unbelief. We can’t make ourselves unblind by our own reason and strength. We can’t come to…

Lent 3 – 2023

Sermon Text-John 4:5-26, 39-42 JESUS’ TEACHING CREATES A CLEAN HEART Prayer: Yes, Lord, we are sinners, and our sin is inexcusable. We know Your Law, and still transgress it. We flee to You, Lord Jesus Christ! Wash us, and we shall be whiter than snow! Forgive our sins, since You bore them for us and put an end to them. Give us Your Holy Spirit, that henceforth we may strive against sin and serve You according to Your commandment. Amen.…

Mid Week Lent 2 – 2023

THY KINGDOM COME Prayer: Dear Lord: We do not ask, like Pontius Pilate did, if You are a King. We know You are the King of kings. But shouldn’t we be asking if You are our King? We ask You to bless Your Word, so that we and all may be added unto You, live under You in Your kingdom by grace, and serve You both now and in heaven in perfect righteousness, innocence, and blessedness. Amen! This is most…

Lent 2 – 2023

HOW DO YOU KNOW GOD LOVES YOU? Prayer: Lord, You have loved our fallen race, and rather than condemn us, cast out and banish us from Your face, Your only Son You sent us. He died upon the cross that we should all be saved forever; thus Jesus also died for me. Help me forget it never! Amen. (Thomas Kingo, ELH 449 v. 2) Sermon Text, John 3:1-17. Dear fellow redeemed in Christ, who is given and sent by the…

Epiphany 2-2023

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FOLLOW JESUS AS THE LAMB OF GOD? Sermon Text: John 1:29-42. Dear fellow beneficiaries of the Lamb’s atonement, who in God’s eyes are those whose sins are paid for: Grace and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, to you. Amen. John 1:29 is one Bible verse that you really should know by heart: “Look! (Or Behold!) The Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.” The first thing…

7th Sunday of Pentecost-2022

Sermon text: Matthew 5:20-28: In these words from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is speaking the Law that condemns. This preaching condemns sins and it condemns people. At first, it doesn’t seem right that Jesus is condemning sins. Right outside our church on our sign, all day long it shows the verse that says: “God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him” (Jn 3:17 EHV). This leads…
