'He who spared not HIs own Son ...'
By Rev. Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, Luverne
October 22, 2019
If there is a holy, loving God, why do bad things keep happening? This question is asked often in our day and age. There certainly is no shortage of evil in the world in which we live! Mass shootings, murder-suicides, drug abuse, rape … and the list goes on. Two friends, one an unbeliever and the other a Christian, were enjoying their morning coffee together. They began to talk about the latest…

'Did God really say?'
By Pastor Gary Klatt, St. John Lutheran Church, Luverne, Minnesota
October 15, 2019
The Bible begins, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” It then explains what was created, how it was created, and when it was created. These words were written by Moses, by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, some 2,000 years after they occurred. These words serve as an introduction to God’s revelation of time and history as He personally interacted with all that He created. The…

Sin taps
By Maggie Berndt-Dreyer, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Hills
October 08, 2019
Next weekend I’m going to run a half marathon in Mankato. It’s been 4 years since I ran my first half marathon, so needless to say, I had to start training from scratch. It takes intentional training for me to be able to run a long-distance race. As I reflect back over the past few months and all of the workouts I have done, it’s pretty unbelievable to me how far I’ve come. At the beginning, when…

What a day that will be
By Pastor Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, Luverne
October 01, 2019
On our grand-daughter’s second birthday, I watched with excitement as she opened each gift. A big smile would appear on her face each time a gift was put on her lap. One gift that year was a baby doll that my wife found. As she pulled off the birthday paper, she saw it was a doll. Her eyes became large like a saucer. Her mouth opened in surprised and a loud squeal filled the room. The best gift…

Word of God
By Laura Phillips, Palisade Lutheran/First Lutheran, Valley Springs, South Dakota
September 24, 2019
“Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers; but their delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law they meditate day and night. They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper.” Psalm 1:1-3 This can be…

Changed by God's grace
By Pastor Jason Cunningham, First Presbyterian Church, Luverne
September 10, 2019
There has been a long ongoing debate among those who teach and study the craft of preaching sermons. Some say it’s good to use personal illustrations and stories to try to better explain a Bible verse or concept. Those who believe this would argue that personal stories can bring greater connection between the preacher and congregation. Or they might say personal stories are best because we know…
