The Divine Service for the Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost (October 23, 2022)

“The Humbled are Exalted” – Luke 18:9-17

What do a Pharisee, tax collector, and little children have in common? All examples of God’s great reversal that is a theme that runs through Luke’s Gospel. Those who humbly come before God by faith receive God’s mercy and are lifted up – exalted over their lowliness. But the prideful, self-exalted will be brought down and humbled because of their lack of faith and mercy towards God and their neighbor. May we have a childlike faith that will trust in God to save us!

The Divine Service for the Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost (October 9, 2022)

“Where are the Nine?” – Luke 17:11-19

What are you thankful for? Who do you thank for those blessings? May we always come to the feet of our Savior, Jesus, and give Him thanks for all that we need for this body and life! Yet, more so, we thank Him for the redemption of our bodies and souls from the leprosy of sin that He earns for us by His cross.

Pastor John Fuchs, Emeritus, graciously serves for Pastor Augustine for this service.

The Divine Service for the Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost (September 25, 2022)

“Crossing the Chasm” – Luke 16:19-31

Jesus tells the parable of a rich man and poor Lazarus to teach us about the great chasm that divides us from our heavenly Father. Only by God’s grace received by faith do we cross the chasm from hell to heaven. Only through the Word of God and the means of grace does Jesus flood the chasm and float us across on His cross to bring us from death to life. So, listen to Jesus and have life everlasting!

The Divine Service for the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost (September 18, 2022)

“The Merciful Master” – Luke 16:1-15

Jesus continues teaching His disciples with the parable of the dishonest manager. It is a contrast of mankind’s shrewdness in dealing with one another (I did something for you, now you do something for me) with the unsearchable depths of mercy that God, our true Master, has for us when our bill of sin is due. There is no bartering; only mercy. May we love and trust that Jesus has paid our bill in full!

The Divine Service for the Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost (September 4, 2022)

“Be a Hater?!?” – Luke 14:25-35

Jesus lays out some really strong language and impossible tasks for our life of discipleship. If left to us to count the cost of following Jesus, no one could ever be His disciple. Thanks be to God that the Law isn’t just what God expect of us, but also to show us what Jesus fulfilled for us and for our salvation!

The Divine Service for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost (August 28, 2022)

“What Sacrifice Looks Like” – Hebrews 13:1-17

Sacrifice. God has commanded the life of His people to be one of sacrifice. What that looks like has changed because of Christ’s perfect sacrifice for us on His cross. What does God expect of His people today? A lot. But we are capable of offering a sacrifice pleasing to God because we have Christ on our side!
