A Jesus Centered Community of Scripture, Faith, and Grace
Sermons on Pentecost (Season) (Page 17)
Today in our series about Law and Gospel, we talk about how we apply Law and Gospel to ourselves, and how to take the Law and Gospel we find it Scripture and make it our own. Sermon Text: Matthew 16:21-28 Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection [21] From that time Jesus began to show his disciples…
We start off our LawGospel sermon series by talking about what makes us good and righteous.

Where do you look when you get in trouble? Do you look up? Do you look down? What does where you look tell you about what you’re looking for? We talk today about Peter walking on the water and the meaning of the blue field in Luther’s Rose symbol. Sermon Text: Matthew 14:22-33 Jesus Walks on…

Sermon Text: Matthew 13:24-43 The Parable of the Weeds [24] He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom…
This classic “University Lutheran question” gets at the notion of what Jesus is getting at when He calls His disciples “little children”. Sermon Text: Matthew 11:25-30 Come to Me, and I Will Give You Rest [25] At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things…
We talk about who we can trust, the “Treatise Against the Power and Primacy of the Pope” and how Jesus is ultimately more trustworthy than even we ourselves are. Sermon Text: Jeremiah 28:1-9 [1] In that same year, at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fifth month of the…
