[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 Lent Midweek 1
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, we are about 15 hours before our Lord breathes his last and dies on the cross. It is Holy Thursday.

Sermon for Ash Wednesday
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear Saints of God, the two most important things for us to know are also the two most difficult things for us to know. And they are these.

Sermon for Fifth Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, we pick up today where we left off last week. Jesus was in the synagogue in Capernaum.

And then they leave the synagogue and they go down the…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday after Epiphany

Sermon for Third Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] In the name of Jesus, amen. Dear saints, we have today in the Old Testament lesson Jonah chapter 3, the middle of the book of Jonah, and in fact what I think is the â it’s important, it’s an important part, but maybe the most normal part of the book of Jonah. What I’d like to do is think about the entirety of Jonah this morning…
Sermon for Second Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] You were bought with a price. You may be seated. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Dear Saints, I have all week been trying to get away from the Epistle lesson. I wanted to preach about the Gospel. I just couldn’t. There’s so much wisdom for us, especially in our own day, in this passage from 1 Corinthians 6. So this morning, in the early…
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.

I mean, we came out of Advent…
