5/17/20 John 15:9-17 “What the World Needs Now…” I would like to begin by telling you about a week I had once. It had been quite a week. It began on Monday when I joined a group of pastors at a spiritual retreat in Fargo. I...
5/10/20 John 15:1-8 “Ask and You Shall Receive!” This has always been one of my favorite passages in the Bible. It tells so much and it has also been the source of much controversy. I have some friends who are Baptist and they are wonderful people. ...
5/3/20 1 John 3:16-24 “Worse Than the Coronavirus!” There is one thing that really strikes me just about every time I sit before a blank screen on the computer and that is we are really a nation of words. Whether we are a farmer or a...
4/26/20 Acts 3:12-19 “Amazing Love for You!” I was hoping that this would finally be the Sunday when we don’t have to talk about the coronavirus any more but that doesn’t seem to be the case. I’m afraid that we are going to have this for...

4/5/20 John 12:12-16 “Celebration Sunday” I think that it is really hard to believe that it is already Palm Sunday. We have had quite a spring so far if that is what you want to call it. In this area we had a lot of snow...
3/29/20 John 12:20-33 “I’ve Been Planted” This has been quite a week for just about everyone here today. In one way or another we have been fighting the coronavirus. This has never happened before, so we don’t always know what we are doing. This is a...
3/22/20 Ephesians 2:1-10 “Do You Live in Before or After?” There are a lot of different things that our television industry tries to pass off as entertainment. Most of you are aware of my critical views on this subject so here I go again. There are...
March 15, 2009 John 2:13-25 “Is Your Anger Righteous?” I hope that you will notice this week as we look at this passage in the book of John, that this is much easier reading and understanding than the instructions that we had last week from Paul...
