Sermon for Third Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, this morning we have placed in front of us here at least this part of this Old Testament lesson from chapter 3 by the prophet Moses that we often refer to as The Fall. And if you look in your study Bible, it might actually be titled The…
Sermon for Seventh Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen. I think we could go ahead and end the service right now with that hymn. But if you were here a couple of weeks ago, you might be thinking, hey, what’s going on here? We sang this two weeks ago and a few days ago as Jonathan and I were here he came over and we started talking and he said, you know, I’m thinking about…
Sermon for Second Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. I think the main temptation with today’s readings, especially the gospel lesson, is for us to really only talk about what’s going on with Thomas, because after all, let’s admit it, he’s kind of an easy target to focus on. And we will talk…
Sermon for Good Friday Tre Ore 1
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. Jesus’ first words from the cross are an inaccessory prayer given up to his Father, but who were these words meant for? Was Jesus crying out on behalf of the Roman soldiers, the ones who flogged him mercilessly, who mocked and ridiculed him and then drove the nails into…
Sermon for Maundy Thursday
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. I’m not entirely sure how long this has been going on, but in recent years it seems like there’s been this fascination among certain groups of Christians with the observance of a Passover meal. And maybe you’ve got friends who do this, and maybe you’ve…
Sermon for Lent Midweek 3
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. Jesus knows the hour of his greatest trial has come. And so he leads his disciples from the place of the Passover meal through the dark Kidron Valley to the edge of the Mount of Olives to this place called Gethsemane. As many times before he tells his disciples, you sit here,…
Sermon for Second Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. I don’t really have any kind of statistical data or facts to back up what I’m about to say, but I think if you were to take a poll or a survey of a group of people, a group of unbelievers, and you asked them the question, why don’t you believe in the triune…
Sermon for The Baptism of Our Lord
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Well, this morning we hear this account from St. Mark of the baptism of Jesus, and maybe it’s just me, maybe I’m the only one that does this, but I think sometimes we might be tempted, often tempted to overlook the importance of it. I mean, we came out of Advent…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday of Advent
[Machine transcription] Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. Today we have something maybe out of the ordinary, somewhat of an anomaly, whatever you want to call it, as this is the fourth Sunday in Advent, but it’s also Christmas Eve, and my math tells me this happens about seven years, every seven years or…
Sermon for Twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] And Jesus said to them, whose likeness and inscription is this? They said, Caesar’s. Then he said to them, therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. Amen. Please be seated. Grace, mercy, and peace from…
