Feb 26 – First Sunday in Lent

The Divine Service for the First Sunday in Lent (February 26, 2023)

“Through One Man” – Romans 5:12-19

Lent is a time of “spring training” for the Christian. A time to remember that we face temptation every day. We dare not think too highly of ourselves, our goodness, even our faith, for we all too often give into temptation. Through one man, Adam, we all suffer from temptations and sin. Yet through one man, Jesus, we have the victory over any sin we fall into, failing to recognize temptation or just giving into it.

January 1 – Circumcision and Name of Jesus

The Divine Service for the 8th Day of Christmas (Jan. 1, 2023) where the Church celebrates the Circumcision and Name of Jesus.

“Blood and a Name” – Luke 2:21

Why is the circumcision of Jesus a big deal? Like so many things that God commands, the significance can be lost if not treasured from generation to generation. Praise God that Mary and Joseph did not shy away from their duty and brought Jesus to be circumcised and shed His first blood for our salvation as He begins the fulfillment of God’s commands and promises!
