The service of the Word and prayer for the Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany (January 31, 2021). Moses was one of the greatest prophets and leaders of God’s people. Yet there would be a greater prophet God would send. That prophet is Jesus. With so many false or misguided prophets around us, we need to listen to the Prophet to stay true to His Word to stay on the narrow road to heaven!

The service of the Word for the Third Sunday after the Epiphany (January 24, 2021). Have you ever suffered for the sake of being a Christian? The prophet Jonah did because God was sending him to a people to be forgiven when Jonah did not think they deserved it. Thanks be to God that His love is given to all who repent and believe in the gospel! It is a love that we will also suffer under because of our own sins and faulty judgments, as well as because of persecution for following Christ. But the Lord’s steadfast love helps us endure until the day when we will see that it was all worth it!

The service of the Word for the Second Sunday after the Epiphany (January 17, 2021). Jesus calls you to be a disciple, and God’s word forms our hearts and lives to live in a way that is pleasing to Him in our thoughts, words, and actions. This is the cross we bear as we live in a world that seeks its own pleasure at every moment. Holy living is not easy, especially in a world that sexualizes so many aspects of life and media and entertainment. But God has called us into the body of His Son, and in Him we are given holiness and forgiveness to live “a sexually pure and decent life in what we say and do, and husband and wife love and honor each other” (Small Catechism, Sixth Commandment).

The service of the Word for the Baptism of Our Lord (January 10, 2021). Pastor John Fuchs serves with the glorious message of baptism whereby we are brought into the kingdom of God. And it all begins with Jesus in the water where He stands in the place of sinners. That the glory of getting all wet!

The observance of the Feast of the Epiphany of Our Lord in word and song lights our hearts with the joy of Christmas. Epiphany, as we observe it in our liturgical tradition, is the coming of the wise men to worship the Lord Jesus and bring Him gifts fit for a king. They had followed the star to Bethlehem, but the real star is Jesus, because He is the light promised for all people, even these Gentile foreigners. May we also rejoice the the real Star of Christmas is Jesus, who shines on us with His Word and Sacrament to light our path to heaven!
