7th Sunday after Pentecost                                                                  July 27, 2025

7/27/2025

 
Readings:  Genesis  18:20-32/ Psalm 138 / Luke 11:1-13

Introduction: Persistence in prayer is encouraged by Jesus and wins the attention of God when Abraham intercedes for Sodom. The life of the baptized—to be rooted and built up in Christ Jesus—is to be nurtured with prayer. God hears and answers prayer and so strengthens God’s own. “When I called, you answered me; you increased my strength within me.”

Sermon:   Pastor Patrick  Torbit

6th Sunday after Pentecost                                                                  July 20, 2025

7/20/2025

 
Readings:  Genesis 18:1-10a/ Psalm 15 / Luke 10:38-42

Introduction: Perhaps the church, at its best, is “all ears.” God urges the faithful, again and again, to “listen up!”—to heed the word that gives life. So it was with Abraham and Sarah, Mary and Martha, and the early church at Colossae. So it is today as we join the assembly to hear the word of God, the word of life.

5th Sunday after Pentecost                                                                  July 13, 2025

7/13/2025

 
Readings:  Deuteronomy 30:9-14 / Psalm 25:1-10 / Luke 10:25-37

Introduction: To love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind is to reflect God’s mercy in responding to one’s neighbor. That mercy found its most profound expression in the “gospel that has come to you”—namely the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. That gospel mercy comes to us again today: at the font, at the table, and from the pulpit. It is very near to you.

Message:  John Sedlander

4th Sunday after Pentecost                                                                    July 6, 2025

7/6/2025

 
Readings:  Isaiah 66:10-14 / Psalm 66:1-9 / Luke 10:1-11, 16-20  

Introduction:  God is the source of our nourishment. Jesus’ invitation to “take and eat . . . take and drink” is a repeated one. In holy communion, in the word read and proclaimed, in the assembly of the people of God, the dominion of God has come near. Rejoice! Your name is written in heaven.
