Sermon for Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, we, you and I, we Christians, we worship Jesus. This is what sets us apart from the world. It’s what sets us apart even from our own sin, from death, from the devil. This is what gives us hope. It’s what gives us peace in the world. We worship Jesus. Yesterday I was visiting with someone. Then…
Sermon for Second Sunday of Christmas
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, we want to meditate on the great mysteries in this text. How, for example, can Jesus, who is both God and man, learn and grow in wisdom if he knows all things? Or this question: Did Jesus sin in staying in Jerusalem at the temple while his parents thought he was with them on the way home? Or, what…
Sermon for the Feast of Stephen
[Machine transcription] And Stephen said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.” You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints of God, Merry Christmas, and God be praised that Jesus coming in our flesh gives us such hope, such peace, such joy and comfort. But it’s a little bit shocking, I…
Sermon for Christmas Day
[Machine transcription] Amen. Dear Saints of God, Merry Christmas. And may the Lord grant you that joy and that peace that comes from the incarnation of Jesus in your flesh and blood, and the peace and the kindness that He gives to us. These words that we’ve heard from John chapter 1 are some of the most sublime and wonderful words that bring to us this mystery of…
Sermon for Christmas Eve (late)
[Machine transcription] And when the shepherds saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, Merry Christmas, and in the name of Jesus, may the Holy Spirit open our ears and hearts to rejoice in the good tidings of great joy that the angels had for the shepherds on the first…
Sermon for Christmas Eve (early)
[Machine transcription] And when the shepherds saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, Merry Christmas. And I bring you tidings of comfort and joy. Oh, tidings of comfort and joy. That, by the way, is, I think, my new favorite Christmas song, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday of Advent
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus. Amen. Dear Saints of God, we rejoice today in hearing the Holy Scriptures, and most especially in hearing the name of Jesus brought to Elizabeth when the Virgin Mary delivered her. I want to focus on the Epistle text from Hebrews chapter 10, but just on our way there, I want to notice this, both about Mary and Elizabeth, and I…

Sermon for Third Sunday of Advent
[Machine transcription] Calling two of his disciples to him, John sent them to the Lord, saying, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, I think this sermon has three parts. Part one. I remember talking to a group of pastors a few months ago, maybe a couple of years ago now,…
Sermon for Second Sunday of Advent
[Machine transcription] And John went into all the regions around the Jordan proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, this last Thursday the children from Upbring came over for their chapel, and they were asking why we changed the colors in here and what those candles were doing. I told…
