December

What Are You Waiting For?

December 3, 2023 – First Sunday in Advent

Rev. Dr. Thomas Ahlersmeyer

Be it the second coming or your own mortality, Jesus will return! Are you ready? If not, what are you waiting for? 

Sermon Text: Mark 13:37
Readings: Psalm 80:1-7; Isaiah 64:1-9; Mark 13:24-37

 

Comfort, Comfort My People

December 10, 2023 – Second Sunday in Advent

Rev. Dr. Walter Maier III

We all need comfort for various reasons, which includes our feeling sorrow over our sins. So, be comforted! Even though we are sinners, God shows us abundant grace, and Jesus, our Good Shepherd, carries each of us in his arms. These truths are certain, because they come from God’s Word, which stands forever. 

Sermon Text: Isaiah 40:1-11
Readings: Psalm 85:1-9, Isaiah 40:1-11, Mark 1:1-8

 

The Way of the Lord

December 17, 2023 – Third Sunday in Advent

Rev. Thomas Eggold

The message of Advent is not that we should get better or get busy. This is not a time to show God how qualified we are for the kingdom. Instead, Advent calls us to despair of our efforts and let go of our past performance and to die at the foot of the cross of Jesus Christ where our burden was carried, our sin was punished, comfort is given, salvation is found, and we receive the righteousness of Christ. And this is the way of the Lord.

Sermon Text: John 1:23
Readings: Psalm 126; Isaiah 61:1-4, 8-11; John 1:6-8, 19-28

 

In a Manger?

December 24, 2023 – Christmas Day Observed

Rev. Shayne Jonker

The manger in Bethlehem is the first step toward a hilltop called Calvary and Christ’s death for the sins of the world. Rather than shy away from that truth, we remember and marvel: the Son of God wills to become a swaddled baby in a Bethlehem barn because He wills to go to the cross for you.

Sermon Text: Luke 2:7
Readings: Psalm 98; Isaiah 9:2-7; Luke 2:1-20

 

At Home with Jesus

December 31, 2023 – First Sunday after Christmas

Rev. Paul Shoemaker

Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the temple. Simeon and Anna greeted Him with joy. For many, being in church is a source of great joy. Worship Anew seeks to bring that joy to those who are unable to attend church.

Sermon Text: Luke 2:22-40
Readings: Psalm 111; Galatians 4:4-7; Luke 2:22-40

Epiphany Light

January 7, 2024 – Epiphany of Our Lord (Observed)

Rev. William Mueller

The prophecy from the prophet is profound. Light in the darkness. Kings and nobility bear witness to the Light. Rare gifts given from love. This is Epiphany and so much more! Come and worship. Bow down with the Magi and discover, along with a boy named Gunther, Epiphany Light.

Sermon Text: Isaiah 60:1-6
Readings: Psalm 72:1-11; Isaiah 60:1-6; Matthew 2:1-12

 

See Greater Things

January 14, 2024 – Second Sunday after the Epiphany

Rev. Dr. Thomas Ahlersmeyer

We SEE GREATER THINGS in daily living and eternity with Jesus in our lives. When Jesus entered a skeptical disciple’s life, Nathanael’s vision of God greatly increased. He promises and does the same in our lives!

Sermon Text: John 1:51
Readings: Psalm 139:1-10, 1 Samuel 3:1-10, John 1:43-51

 

Proper Perspective

January 21, 2024 – Third Sunday after the Epiphany

Rev. Dr. Walter Maier III

What a life we have! We experience God’s blessings and joys. We also have sorrows. The Apostle Paul reminds us to keep this present life in proper perspective. What exactly is that perspective?

Sermon Text: 1 Corinthians 7:29-31
Readings: Psalm 62:1-8; 1 Corinthians 7:29-31; Mark 1:14-20

 

Teaching with Authority

January 28, 2024 – Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany

Rev. Thomas Eggold

The Word of Jesus in synagogue wasn’t a new teaching; it was a retelling of a timeless promise from the mouth of God Himself. It is the teaching that man is not capable of keeping God’s Law. It is the teaching that Christianity is not about the work of the Christian, but about the work of Christ. My friends, today we have this very same Word of God...and this teaching is astonishing!

Sermon Text: Mark 1:22
Readings: Psalm 111; Deuteronomy 18:15-20; Mark 1:21-28
