Sermon for Palm Sunday
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Reagan, you are clothed in the righteousness of Christ with all the baptized, the glorious robes of his blood and righteousness, and ready now to stand before him on the last day with nothing at all to fear. I know that’s scary, the idea of being judged. And for you, for all of us, because we’ve, ugh, we…
Sermon for Fifth Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Gabe and all the baptized, there is a miracle at work in baptism. And it is the opposite miracle that the Lord performed in the wilderness. We’ll remember that in the sea, the Lord Jesus makes a path, a dry path for the people to cross through the wilderness. He makes a desert in the ocean. In fact, all…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] Galatians 3:26, “For you are all sons of God through faith in Jesus Christ,” and Galatians 4:6, “Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts crying out, ‘Abba, Father.’ Therefore, you are no longer a slave but a son, and of a son, then an heir through God.” You may be seated.…
Sermon for Second Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame. We are in a shame-glory battle, a fight over what we glory in and what we are ashamed of. I want to think about that in two ways this morning because this is an…
Sermon for First Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] And Jesus answered him, “It is written, you shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.” You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints of God, in order to fulfill God’s will, we put our attention on the text before us and maybe see if we can take it up in three categories. First, wisdom; then,…
Sermon for Ash Wednesday
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, you’ve got a little something right there. Do you think it’s strange that we put ashes on our head at the same time we read Jesus telling us not to put ashes on our head? And here’s the point. Jesus is worried, and I think the church is worried about this, that we would think that…
Sermon for Transfiguration
[Machine transcription] Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, it was about eight days after these things. What things? The conversation that Jesus had with his disciples up at Caesarea Philippi. We…
Sermon for Seventh Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints of God, Jesus has hard words for us today, again, in this sermon that he preaches from Luke chapter 6. I think maybe let’s run into it in this way. If you’ve ever wondered why the Lord Jesus does not simply baptize us straight into glory, glory? Why, after we’re baptized, there’s not a…
Sermon for Sixth Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints of God, we are fearing and loving and trusting people. In fact, that’s kind of a tautology. We are people, and that means that we are fearing and loving and trusting. That’s what we were created to do by God in the garden. In fact, that’s what it means to be created in the image of God, that…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints of God, we have before us such a marvelous text. I just want to confess to you that I could not pick one text to preach on, so this is what I’m going to try today. I’ve never tried it before, except this morning, and that is I’m going to try to preach four little mini short sermons. In fact,…
