read this sermon
This Sunday heard the message of John the Baptist regarding the identity of the Christ. He stands among us, and we do not recognize Him. Do you see Jesus?
The artwork on this page, from Ravenna, is a depiction of Eden.
How on earth did we come to practice a scholastic/pietist/rationalist view of confirmation, and what can we do about it?
We hear from Jesus regarding truth, and how it will set us free as we celebrate Reformation Day.
We take a look at the Enrollment of Sponsors, which teaches us what godparents/sponsors are for.
We look at two stories of resurrection, and a hymn written by a guy in celebration of being hired for a job.
A survey of the significance of the baptismal font and history of Lutheran baptismal liturgy.
A look at the readings and hymns for the Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity, which deal with the issues of anxiety and contentment. I also submit a few thoughts on the fifth anniversary of my installation at Zion.
We take a look at the funeral liturgy, and why we do or don't do certain things in caring for our dead.
We investigate the notes for a funeral, which all point to the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting.
We begin our look at the church's rites with an overview of the four chief rites which embrace the totality of life in Christ; Holy Baptism, Confirmation, Holy Matrimony, and Christian Burial.
We take a look at the lessons for the Eleventh Sunday after Trinity, discuss St. Bernard a little, and the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.
This coming Sunday is the Christian commemoration of Tisha B'Av/תִּשְׁעָה בְּאָב, in which we hear about the destruction of the Temple, and learn from whence our true peace comes.
Can you serve God and money? This sermon examines one of the most puzzling of Jesus' parables; the Dishonest Manager from Luke 16:1-9.
We explore the themes related to the parable of the Dishonest Manager, along with the hymns for this coming Sunday.
