God doesn’t just simply give you all the things. He does so because his very own Son came down and earned all the things for you.

Jesus did not come to be first. He came to be faithful, faithful to His Father’s mission for you.

If your congregation promotes and supports “family values,” you should be prepared to take this text head-on.

That is why we dance on graves. That is why we smile in the midst of sorrowful tears. That is why we retell old stories and share humorous memories.

When the old Adam hears a command, he hears a prescription. Like a coach drawing up a play so you can win the game.
06/14/20
The Father in Heaven is the only one we have legitimate reason to fear. But in Christ, we learn that the Father knows His children intimately and values His children exceedingly.

As the storm waves of life crash into us, threatening to pull us down into the undertow of sin, Jesus comes and stands between us and the furious tides.

Before the sending is the gathering. Before the gathering is the compassion. Before the compassion is the seeing. And it all starts with a gracious God.

The Lord, who is with us, retains authority over us. His promise calls for trust and obedience.
05/27/20
The Lamb is where we are, opposite God, in our place as sinners. He bears our punishment of sin, the forsakenness of God. Anyone bearing his or her own sin is finally lost, but not Jesus.

The biggest point Luther makes about the descent is not that Jesus triumphed over hell idle and unaffected, but that Jesus defeated hell by suffering hell away.
05/24/20
Whether we are sheltering at home on Pentecost or gathering together in church, we have reason for praise. Jesus Christ is the source of the Spirit and that Spirit will never fail.
05/22/20
We know God has a plan to bring forgiveness and salvation and healing to people, but we can’t see how it’s all going to work out.
