Advent (338)
  1. We still think we can sort own own problems with more money, more education, more resources, more techniques, more, more, more.
  2. Show me your righteousness, we can only point to Jesus
  3. On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss John the Baptist once again – this time his appearance at the beginning of John's gospel.
  4. All Day and All of the Night. In this episode of Banned Books, we discuss Advent and the second coming of Jesus Christ while reading a sermon by Martyn Lloyd-Jones. Along the way, we talk about the symbols and meaning of Christmas, how preaching a biblical sermon doesn’t mean it’s a gospel sermon, and why that matters, all with an extra echo for dramatic effect.
  5. Mark reminds us in this text that John was a redirection specialist. Come to think of it, so are you.
  6. The message we proclaim will and must always be that Jesus died and rose again. This is the full good news we need.
  7. The future has come, and the future comes in the resurrected Christ who is present with His real voice and His real Presence in His holy Word and blessed Sacraments.
  8. The Magnificat invites us to enter into, consider, and embrace the worldview of a teenaged Jewish girl and her geriatric aunt: The one bearing the prophet Elijah which was to come and the other carrying within her womb the God whom she and her nation worshipped and feared.
  9. It is the love of God that reveals Him as the promise-making, promise-keeping God.
  10. Mary hears the word of God and then waits on the Word of God to be born from her womb.
