Faithful Preaching

Our Pastor’s sermons are grounded in God’s Law and the joy of the Gospel, drawing directly from Scripture to proclaim God’s truth.

Through the sermon, the Holy Spirit works to convict us of sin, drive us to repentance, and direct us to Christ as our only hope and salvation. The Law shows us our need and the Gospel announces what God has done to meet that need through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In a noisy and fractious world, the pulpit stands as a place where God’s truth is proclaimed without alteration or compromise. Here, Christ is preached, sins are forgiven, and faith is sustained by the Word of God.

Your Place is with Jesus

† Fifth Sunday of Easter † May 3, 2026

Sin drove us from our place with God, leaving us lost and longing for home. Jesus declares himself the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He is the only mediator between the Father and fallen humanity. Through his death and resurrection, he has gone ahead to prepare a place for his people. In baptism, believers are united to Christ and already home. We are never lost, always found in him.

Sheep and the Shepherd

† Fourth Sunday of Easter † April 26, 2026

Jesus describes himself as the Good Shepherd and the door of the sheep. Like sheep, we are prone to wander, unable to save ourselves, and wholly dependent on him. Any teaching not rooted in Christ crucified and risen is the voice of a thief, not a shepherd. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus marks his sheep in baptism, forgives their sins, and keeps them safe in his flock forever.

Saved

† Third Sunday of Easter † April 19, 2026

Peter calls people to be saved from a “crooked generation.” All people are sinners by nature, bent away from God and in need of repentance. Peter’s message was simple: repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. Through baptism, the Holy Spirit delivers the forgiveness that Jesus won on the cross to each believer.

Fear Not

† Second Sunday of Easter † April 12, 2026

Jesus’ two resurrection day appearances to the disciples brought them joy. Thomas missed Jesus’ first appearance and so doubted the witness of the others. It was the word of Jesus that brought Thomas to faith once again. This is the gift that Jesus gives to us on the second Sunday of Easter!

How The Story Ends

† The Resurrection Of Our Lord † April 05, 2026

The sorrow of Good Friday has given way to the joy of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus. We live each day in that joy knowing that in Jesus, our own death has been overcome. We know how the story ends. It ends not with darkness and death but eternal rejoicing in heaven and the promise of the resurrection of all flesh. Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed! Alleluia!

By His Wounds We Are Healed

† Good Friday † April 03, 2026

Consider the Good Friday wounds of Jesus. He endures them not because He deserved them for wrongs He did. In this Passion, He bears the sin of the world. He forgives our sins through His death. Isaiah 53:5 “By His wounds we are healed.”
