Today we welcome Rev. Dr. Geoffrey Robinson as he speaks to us about the faithfulness of our risen Savior, Jesus Christ. The Savior who pursues us. The Savior that did not let go of Peter will never let go of us either. We pray that you are blessed as we worship together today. Link to Service video on Vimeo Link to service…

In today’s text from Romans 9, Paul wrestles with the unbelief of Israel, whom he loves so dearly. This, for Paul, may be the ultimate test of his doxology—that we trust God when we do not fully understand His ways—but Paul notes that God’s actions are always gracious, working toward salvation, whether received in faith or rejected in unbelief. We welcome everyone…

Our Old Testament Reading (Zech 9:9–12) sounds a joyful note to those in bondage . . . and sounds a great deal like either Advent or Palm Sunday. Here during the non-festival portion of the church year, it still announces a compassionate and powerful King who will deliver to us peace, freedom, and joy in the protective custody of certain hope. Welcome…

At the beginning of Matthew 10, Jesus calls the twelve disciples and sends them out with specific instructions. The Gospel for today is a continuation of His instructions but shifts the focus to warning the disciples of their persecution for being faithful in their confession of Christ. May the Lord strengthen and equip you to do His work! Link to Service video…

In the liturgy of the Divine Service, people receive living water through the Gospel, in Absolution, the reading of Scripture, hearing the preaching, and Holy Communion. As they are refreshed and renewed by this living water, out of their hearts the Holy Spirit will cause to “flow rivers of living water” (Jn 7:38). Worshipers are then sent forth with God’s benediction as…

On this Confirmation Sunday may we be filled with the Spirit of God as we see Ben Andrews, Molly Harman, and Izzy Wildauer confirm what happened at their Baptism and confess their faith in our God- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. May we as a congregation remember our confirmation vows, be renewed in the Word, and work together to grow in our…

As surely as we “live and move and have our being” in “the God who made the world and everything in it” (Acts 17:28, 24), the apostles and the early church were surely moved by the resurrection of that God. Again, this Sixth Sunday of Easter we see the propers, especially the First Reading from Acts, keyed by the fact that Christ…

First Peter (in general) and our text (in particular) speak to our baptismal identity as “newborn infants” (2:2). After addressing his hearers as “elect exiles” (1:1), Peter opens with a high doxology: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the…
