"They forsook all and followed Him" Trinity 5 2022
July 17, 2022 For you to be a disciple like those of the Scriptures, therefore, is to live daily under the influence of the Word of Jesus. Your heart and mind consciously want to do just that and seek every opportunity to be with Jesus in preaching, teaching, and Sacrament. Jesus himself said to the disciples who had chosen to follow him, "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (John 8:31ff). To be a disciple is to have your priorities adjusted so that work, play, and even family are governed by and focused on hearing Jesus and receiving His gifts.

"Now you see before your eyes the wood of the cross and Christ crucified upon it" Trinity 4 2022
God the Father, working through the Word of Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit, will make, accomplish, and do in you what is needful. And by repenting you, forgiving your sin, and amending your heart, the world around you will begin to change. The good measure given to you will overflow in the same kind for those around you. As you are forgiven by God, you forgive those who sin against you. As you are shown mercy by God, so mercy will overflow for those near you. As God removes the plank from your eye, you will compassionately and in love be given to assist your neighbor with the speck in theirs.

“This Man [Jesus] receives sinners and eats with them.” Trinity 3 2022
Our open rebellion against our fathers and squandering of the inheritance they bequeathed to us cannot separate us from God’s love in Christ Jesus. Our refusal to hear God’s Word and gladly hear and learn it can. Because that Word is life and light. When Jesus speaks with the Father’s authority, He reveals all our sinful rejection. But more than that, He reveals the love of God the Father in giving His Son for the bloody atonement of our sin and the sins of the world. His Word restores what we have forsaken. His Word clothes us again and again in Jesus’ righteousness. His Word sets before us a feast of forgiveness, the body and blood of the Word made flesh, Jesus. His Word resurrects the dead to life again. His Word forgives our rebellion against the heavenly inheritance we have wasted in prodigal living and restores them to us again.

"There is a great chasm between you and sin, death, and Satan" Trinity 1 2022
There was a rich man. There was a poor man. What then do you do? Which one am I? That's how this goes. Then you try to do what fancy theologians today call: placing yourself in the story. Well, nothing can be worse. So you're sitting there trying to place yourself and you're trying to figure out: Am I the rich man or the poor man? Am I good or bad? Am I on the right or wrong side of this parable? I don't exactly have sores that the dogs are licking on so that doesn't sound too good for me. On the other hand, I'm not exactly as terrible as a rich man. Where do I fit?

"Believing comes by the Name doing what the Name loves to do for you" Holy Trinity 2022
Confessing [the Athanasian Creed] is like jumping into the deep end of the pool for the first time as a child: at first, you are somewhat timid, but once you jump in you can’t wait to do it again and again and again, exploring the depths, swimming in its sonorous life. A new world—indeed a new life—has been opened up to us, revealed for us in this name. For it is the life and Name of the very Triune God—who is love in Himself—that we come to know and worship whenever this creed it confessed.
