"Learning to Pray" — Rogate 2023
And so we must not pray just when we are “in the mood” and feel like doing so. An unwillingness to pray is a barrier that can and must be fought. We pray and thank God “always and in all circumstances” (1 Thess 5:17ff). We can learn how to pray. Do not forget that there is One who helps us and makes intercession for us even when we do not know how to pray as we ought. This is God's own Spirit.

"For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain" Jubilate 2023
This is the encouragement, confidence, and hope our LORD Jesus gave His disciples when He said, “Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.” Even while we weep and lament as our flesh sees disease and entropy, the world slides into gross hedonism, and our nation collapses. There is yet hope. He gives you a purpose and future even as He leads you through the valley of the shadow of death. Today in Divine Service, Jesus is giving you to taste and see the joy and goodness that awaits you.

"The false shepherd is always an imposter" Misericordias Domini 2023
Bad shepherds will look, sound, and act like saviors, messiahs, or Christs. But their words cannot save, their sacraments cannot forgive, and their churches are white-washed tombs. When push comes to shove, they will abandon, fleece, or devour you. They care nothing for you but only what robs away Jesus’s glory. And that’s the key to discernment. Has Jesus sent them to speak in His stead and by His command? Do their words lead to Jesus’s cross and resurrection for forgiveness, life, and eternal salvation? Do they call, gather, enlighten, and set you in Christ’s church by the Word of Jesus and His Spirit? Or do they lead you to trust in their world-building plans, science and innovation, and promises of a progressive utopia here on Earth? If it's the latter, they are false shepherds, evil imposters, and their lies are false hopes, dreams, and vanity.
