    The Spirit is God who calls, gathers, enlighten, and santifies!

    Sermon for John 14: 15-21 Sixth Sunday of Easter May 1st 2005 Say Amen! Say Hallelujah! Say Praise the Lord! What’s up with these strange looks? What is it about the Holy Spirit that makes us squirm in our seats? I mean we all believe in God right? And I probably preach about Jesus 90% of ...read more

    So you what to be a sheep, baa, baa, baa, ba?

    Sermon for John 10:1-10 Fourth Sunday in Easter April 13h 2008 I love being a Lutheran. Martin Luther is one of my heroes. OK, I’ll admit he was a rather strange bird, sort of like most Lutherans I know. But one of the things I admire is his willingness to make a stand. Luther stood up to the ...read more

    John 20:19-31 2008 One week after the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ we are back in the real world, and given what I consider a classic text to ponder.

    Claim the Mystery!

    Easter 2008 You all know how we start the Easter Service “He is Risen! He is Risen indeed!” Well we’re not going to do that today. He was dead! He was dead indeed! They had seen him beaten. They had seen him crucified. They had seen him buried. He was dead! And with him died all of their ...read more

    I think we need our heads examined!

    Sermon for Palm Sunday March 16th 2006 I told the story a few weeks back how my lovely wife Sandy convinced me to get the extension ladder, crawl up 26’ or so, and get a stray cat out of a tree. As I dropped to the ground I knew going down it was going to hurt, just not that much. I lay on the ...read more

    I smell bread!

    Sermon for Maundy Thursday March 20th 2008 I own every single episode of Mash of video-tape and have seen each one of them. For those who don’t understand what I’m talking about, the 70’s sitcom is about a group of doctors and nurses trying to make sense of their assignment to a medical unit ...read more

    What happen on this day some 2000 years ago was a murder, a cruel, painful, and utterly shameful execution.

    Sermon for Good Friday 2008 Here is the only message I will proclaim on Good Friday. Because what happen on this day some 2000 years ago was a murder, a cruel, painful, and utterly shameful execution. Paul the apostle says it best when he holds up the horror of the actual cross, “We preach ...read more

    Some stumble over the abundant life Jesus offer, other simply think it is foolishness

    Sermon on Corinthians 1:10-25 January 27th 2008 I have no clue where this message came from. But I do want you lock in your minds this particular verse of the Bible—John 10:10 because you are going to hear me refer back to this short passage quite often. Why? Because this is Gloria Dei’s ...read more

    For God so love the world that He gave His only Son, so that whoever believes in Him will not perish

    Sermon for John 3:1-17 February 17th 2008 As I’ve mentioned over and over Lent is a time of struggle, a time of spiritual growth. Well I’m not sure if I grew this week, but most of the week I sure did struggle. I struggled with why are we here? Not so much in the existential sense—you know why ...read more

    Not much has changed in the course of human history

    Sermon for John 4:5-42 Third Sunday in Lent February 24th 2008 Wow! What a text uh? I could probably put together 6-8 sermons each lasting about 45 minutes. What do you think of that? Well seeing that I only have about 20 minutes, I want us to look at a couple aspects of today’s gospel that ...read more

    Out of the mouth of children. Bold and from the heart!

    Luke 11:1-13 March 2nd 2008 The original text for today was about the blind man who receives his sight. It is a story about our spiritual blindness. I realize Lent is a time of struggle, but I am worn out preaching what I call fire and brimstone sermons. Sure we need to hear about our spiritual ...read more

    Jesus was not a candidate for the most popular award in his class. No wonder they nailed him to a tree.

    Sermon for Luke 14:7-14 September 2nd 2007 Last week I mentioned one of the greatest privileges of being a pastor is the opportunity to preside over Word and Sacrament. The Sacraments are the easy part, because I really do nothing. After all, its God’s work, not mine. But the Word, the Word on ...read more

    What if today you could choose between life and prosperity, death and adversity? What would you choose?

    Sermon for Luke 14:25-33 September 9th 2007 What if today you could choose between life and prosperity, death and adversity? What would you choose? Today’s gospel reading is quite interesting. It begins with “Now large crowds were traveling with him.” When I read the text for a given week, I ...read more

    Jesus would probably find it very difficult today to find a church willing to have him as their pastor.

    Sermon for Luke 15:1-10 September 16, 2007 Jesus would probably find it very difficult today to find a church willing to have him as their pastor. You see, Jesus didn’t fit in the mold of what the church people (the Scribes and Pharisees) thought a religious leader should look like, or act like. ...read more

    Jesus is calling us to start using more of our wits, our brains, our craftiness, our shrewdness that we use to secure our position on earth, and start using these same gifts to the glory of God.

    Sermon for Luke 16:1-13 September 23rd 2007 What do you think guys and gals? Do you want to stick with the text we are dealt today, or maybe search through the Bible and pick one that perhaps is a little easier, at least not quite as challenging? Because, basically every single commentary, ...read more
