- By Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, St. John Lutheran Church, LuverneApril 23, 2025Traditionally, pastors could count on seeing a few faces on Christmas and Easter that didn’t show up much the rest of the year. These are the so-called “Christmas and Easter Christians.” Like many pastors, I was of two minds about it. On the one hand, I would rejoice that they came to hear God’s Word and receive His gifts. On the other hand, I couldn’t help but feel disappointed that I wouldn’t…

- April 16, 2025The women, some of the disciples of Jesus, go to Jesus’ tomb to prepare his body in the custom of the people and find his body missing. The author of the Gospel of Luke says they are perplexed. I mean, right? Who wouldn’t be a little baffled? As they sit in the confusion, two men in dazzling clothes … clothes kind of like lightning … suddenly appear and stand near them. The women are terrified. …

- By Pastor Praveen Muthsuamy, Hills United Reformed ChurchApril 09, 2025tifaceted and therefore the Bible describes it in vivid ways. Sometimes the Bible paints our Christian life as walking according to God’s word [Isaiah 2:5]. Sometimes the Bible paints our Christian life as soldiers in the battle ground [2 Timothy 2:3-4]. Other times the Bible paints our Christian life as an athlete competing to win the prize [2 Timothy 4:7]. Our Christian life includes walking…

- By Rev. Dr. Steven Voris, First Presbyterian Church, LuverneApril 02, 2025I’ve been thinking a lot about parables these days. Parables have mostly been neglected as a genre of literature through the centuries, even though Islam, Buddhism, Judaism, and Christianity have used parables to promote spiritual transformation in the hard of heart. Parables function most effectively when they “shock” people into the realization that what they have previously thought and done…

- By Pastor Mark Eliason, Palisade Lutheran Church, Rock CountyMarch 26, 2025In the 13th chapter of Luke, Luke writes about sin and punishment. In this passage Jesus asks, “Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were worse sinners than all other Galileans?3 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did. 4 Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them—do you think that they were worse offenders…

- By By Pastor Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, LuverneMarch 19, 2025Who do you trust? Why do you trust them? Can I trust you? Can you trust me? These questions arise daily, depending on whom we are talking with. At some level, everyone questions whether they can trust God. Can we trust Him? Most will immediately say yes, but why? We trust God because the Bible declares that he cannot lie. “God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not…

- By Pastor Joe Steenholdt, Christian Reformed Church, LuverneMarch 12, 2025What kind of decisions keep you up at night? Topics like proposing to your girlfriend, choosing a job, selecting a school, or deciding whether your family should foster or adopt? These are all life-changing questions and require careful consideration. In these moments, we often turn to wise friends and internet searches for guidance.
