Galatians 5:16-25 John 14:1-6 Christians are often called “narrow-minded” and to be honest, we have to admit that we are. Now, by that we don’t mean it’s okay to be mean...or hateful..or obnoxious...but the Bible does call us to singular thinking when it comes to who God is and what God does and how God operates. We hold fast to Jesus being the only way to heaven...but we do so because Jesus does....

Romans 1:18-21 John 14:8-11 For the Christian, the existence of God is obvious...but not so for everyone. Often people look at the meaninglessness of this world and say, “How could there be a God?” Often people see the pain and suffering in our world and question the existence of a “good God.” Often people are duped by prevailing philosophies that teaches we came from nothing.

We conclude our “Sitting with the Psalms” sermon series with a Psalm that is not as well known as many of the Psalms we’ve studied...and yet...one that has a profound and amazing reminder of who God is for us! In the first seven verses, the Psalmist talks about extolling, praising and glorifying God, but He does so for a reason that is revealed in verse eight, namely, “The LORD is gracious and mer...

Psalm 121 1 Peter 5:6-11 Psalm 121 is one of the most loved Psalms and mostly so for it’s opening verses “I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.” Those beautiful words give comfort and hope in any situation, but especially in difficult ones. The Lord is our help! The Lord is our help always! Or, as verse five says it: “...

Psalm 96:1-6 2 Corinthians:14-17 One of the blessings in our culture is that we are inundated with the gift of music--it is everywhere and all the time. It is in the house, in the car, in the work-place, in the hallways, and on our phones. Music is not just part of our culture, it is at the core of our culture. In today's Psalm, we are reminded that in Christ we have a new song. God has made us Hi...

Psalm 97:1-7a 1 Peter 2:1-10 We call ourselves a lot of different things—Christians, Believers, Christ-followers, Disciples of Jesus, and the Church. All of those names are actually true and biblical, but there is one name that we don’t often use—God’s People. It’s repeated in Psalm 95 and elsewhere. It reminds us of an amazing truth—we belong to God! We are His. We are His own beloved possession....

Psalm 34:1-8 1 Thessalonians 5:12-18 When we think of worshiping our Lord and Savior, we think of coming to Gloria Dei to sing His praise, hear His Word and receive His Sacraments...and all of that is “worship” or “praise” to be sure.
