God (434)
  1. God preserves language so he might continue to communicate his love and grace to us, and that we might communicate his love and grace to others.
  2. The place where it is most difficult for us to accept God’s will is when suffering, calamities, and finally, death itself.
  3. The “Word” isn’t a thing, it is a person, the Son of the Father, who with the Holy Spirit is one God.
  4. The Bible is a book for the desperate. That is its target audience. Recognizing our desperation readies us to hear the consolation that only God’s Word can offer.
  5. The kingdom of God has a proper name, and his name is Jesus, Son of God, Son of Man.
  6. Repent and believe the Good News! Everything is OK.
  7. "Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream?" Poe is wrong. Though we have lulled ourselves asleep, the reality is far brighter and beautiful than we imagine. Christ is risen and so shall we. The dreamer who dreams is He.
  8. This is an excerpt from “A Lutheran Toolkit” written by Ken Sundet Jones (1517 Publishing, 2021), pgs. 23-25.
  9. Like needing to find a bathroom, the urgency of preaching the presence of God’s kingdom should be felt in the very inner being of every pastor. Not that anything has changed, but God is definitely demonstrating the vulnerability of sinners to the masses. The harvest is now!
  10. What does it look like to preach while the world is ending? Ringside Preachers, Craft of Preaching, and John Pless from Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne tackle this topic from a practical and historical viewpoint after eating fried chicken livers, of course.
  11. From the womb to the tomb, from the cradle to the grave, Jesus’ name defines and describes who he is and what he is all about.
  12. As a parent listens for the cry of a hurting child, our heavenly Father waits for our cry of weal and woe.
