We look at the Lutheran teaching on confession and absolution

August 13, 2026Today's Reading: Catechism: What is Confession?Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 31:1-13; 1 Corinthians 7:1-24“…Our sins are forgiven before God in heaven.” (Small Catechism- Confession)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.The Lutheran Service Book says on page 292 (in red ink): “If you are not burdened with particular sins, do not trouble yourself or search for or invent other sins, thereby turning confession into a torture. Instead, mention one or two sins that you know and let that be enough.”We're big fans of the healing Jesus, the feeding Jesus—and these are super neat things, for sure—but this same Jesus is the dying Jesus, the blood-shedding Jesus, the merciful, forgiving, life-bringing Jesus. When it comes to this Jesus, the forgiveness of sin… well… that's a little harder. If you're blind, everyone knows it; you don't have to level your pride or have your ego crushed. Sinners are prone to hide stuff… to cover it up. And it's that covering up that prevents us from hearing the Word of God: “But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—He then said to the paralytic, “Rise, pick up your bed and go home.” (Matthew 9:6)We love the Jesus who feeds and heals, but when our Lord says that forgiveness is bestowed to us on account of Jesus through the pastor who gives the medicine of immortality—the forgiveness of sins that makes us alive again—that would mean admitting to another person that we're not doing well, and it would mean that only Jesus can do something about what's killing us.We're not perfect; we say THAT all the time. We haven't kept the Ten Commandments, but it's hard to say with St. Paul, “Wretched man that I am, who will save me from this body of death?” (Rom. 7:24) We can confess sin—it's that body-of-death part that's true—but it's the second part, receiving forgiveness, that's so hard. Dead bodies must be given to; only God can do that. So we must ask: “What kind of God are we dealing with?” The God who'll squash us like a bug? Or… is He the slow-to-anger and abounding-in-steadfast-love God? The God Who comes and dwells in the stinky mire of this fallen world to give us the cure for the sin that makes us blind, deaf, lame, and dead?” He's exactly that God, as Luther writes: “Absolution is the Word of God spoken by the mouth of man. It is not the word of man, but of God Himself.” (AE 35:14)In the Name + of Jesus. AmenWe pray: Grant us, O Lord, we pray, to trust in Thee with all our heart; seeing that, as Thou dost always resist the proud who confide in their own strength, so Thou dost not forsake those who make their boast in Thy mercy made known chiefly in the forgiveness of our sin; through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.Rev. Adam DeGroot, pastor of Calvary Lutheran Church in Rio Rancho, NM.

This week on the Respect Life Radio Podcast, host Deacon Geoff welcomes John Melnikov, a theology teacher in Trumbull, Connecticut. Melnikov holds a B.A. in Religious Studies from Fairfield University and an M.A. in Christian Leadership from Liberty University. He is a regular contributor to Catholic Exchange and Crisis Magazine, where he writes on Catholic culture, morality and the challenges facing the Church today. The conversation centers on Melnikov's recent Crisis Magazine article, Seeking Absolution from the Crowd: Confession in the Age of Algorithm. Together, Deacon Geoff and John examine how social media has transformed the way people seek validation, replacing authentic repentance with public performances of apology and approval. They discuss the sacrament of Confession as God's true path to forgiveness and freedom, contrasting it with the fleeting acceptance offered by online audiences. This thoughtful episode invites listeners to rediscover the healing power of God's mercy and the peace that comes through genuine conversion.

Led by the Spirit, Not Driven by the Flesh — a confessional Lutheran sermon on Romans 8:12–14, preached in the tradition of C.F.W. Walther's Law and Gospel distinction. In this LCMS (Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod) sermon, Pastor David P. Balla explores what it truly means to live the Christian life — not as self-improvement or willpower, but as a daily dying and rising accomplished by the Holy Spirit through Holy Baptism, God's Word, Absolution, and the Lord's Supper. Drawing from Romans 8, Matthew 13:22, and Isaiah 55:12–13, this sermon explains the biblical doctrine of sanctification, the meaning of daily contrition and repentance, and how Luther's Small Catechism teaching on Baptism connects directly to St. Paul's call to put the flesh to death. This is confessional Lutheran preaching rooted in the Book of Concord, Francis Pieper's Christian Dogmatics, and Holy Scripture as the final authority — free from American evangelical decision theology. Perfect for those seeking sound LCMS doctrine, Law and Gospel preaching, Baptismal theology, and daily devotional encouragement in the Christian faith.☕ Support this ministry: https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalph

You have been somebody's disciple since the day you were born, and Jesus warns that you never rise above your teacher — given enough time, you simply become him. The world is a blind guide that trains us to judge first and forgive slowly, and we have become blind guides ourselves, reaching for the speck in a brother's eye with a plank in our own. But there is another Teacher: Jesus is the Father's mercy in the flesh, who takes our score-keeping heart to the cross and trains us in Baptism, Word, Absolution, and the Supper until we begin to look like Him.

June 13, 2026Today's Reading: Introit for Trinity 2 - Psalm 18:1-2a, 27, 30a, 49; antiphon: Psalm 18:18b-19Daily Lectionary: Proverbs 13:1-25; John 14:18-31“I love you, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,” (Psalm 18:1-2a) In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.These are words of witness. They speak of who God is and what He does for His people. The Lord is our strength. And yet, I get caught in the lie of independence and self-reliance. I want to believe that *I* am strong. I want to believe that *I* can be brave, powerful, and mighty. And yet, in my most quiet thoughts - I know that I am not. I know that I am weak, I struggle, and I am not enough. When I look at myself, when I rely on myself, when I think only of myself - I cannot be strong. The Third Article of the Creed teaches us that we ‘cannot by our own reason or strength believe in Jesus Christ or come to Him.' We are weak. In fact, in sin, we are dead. So this first verse in Psalm 18 is a gift - it reminds us that we don't have to be strong. In fact, we have the Lord who is strength. It is in Him that we are brought to new life and are made holy. We lean on Him and trust in Him; we are indeed strong in God. His might is given to us. The next verse speaks of God as our rock, fortress, and deliverer. Living in this broken world is hard. Sin hurts. This week has been rough. I have sinned, and I have been sinned against. It can often feel like there is no safe place to go. And yet, we are reminded that we are in Christ. He is our safe place. Church is where we receive His Gifts; we are forgiven, redeemed, loved, and shown mercy. We are delivered from evil and kept safe in God's House. Indeed, God is immovable - His character does not change. He is the protection that is needed from all that would hurt, harm, or kill. He is the only one who can deliver us, who can rescue us, from the brokenness of sin. God is your strength, your rock, your fortress, and your deliverer. When you attend the Divine Service, rest in the safety of God's Word and His promises. Trust that your Baptism is your identity and God's Word of Absolution is for you. Jesus' Body and Blood is yours; eat and drink His promise. You are not alone, but are protected, loved, and safe in Jesus. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.“Fear not! I am with you, O be not dismayed, For I am your God and will still give you aid; I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand, Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand. (LSB 728:2) Deac. Sarah Longmire, Curricula Curator for Higher Things and Director of Family Life at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Lee's Summit, MO.

(Psalm 32; Matthew 18:18; Acts 5:30–32; 1 John 1:8–10) We will conclude today with The Concluding Prayer in Reconciliation of Penitents on page 224 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

April 30, 2026Today's Reading: Catechism: Creed Third ArticleDaily Lectionary: Leviticus 17:1-16; Luke 10:23-42“I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian church, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.” (3rd Article of the Apostles' Creed)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.“So the Holy Spirit is like the Bat-signal,” said a confirmation student while learning about the Third Article of the Creed.“Wait, what?” I answered, bewildered, but curious. “What do you mean?”“Well,” he went on to say, “Whenever Gotham City needs help, they light up the Bat-signal, and it points the way; it lets people know help is on the way; it lets everyone know that Batman is coming to the rescue.”You might not think comic books could provide a talking point for confirmation class and the Holy Spirit. And believe me, I didn't think so at first either. But this kid was right. God the Father sends God the Son. God the Son lives and dies for the sins of the world. God the Son promises God the Holy Spirit. God, the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son. God the Holy Spirit points us back to God the Son, who brings us back to God the Father. The Holy Spirit gives us Jesus. Works faith in our hearts. He calls us by the Gospel, gathers us in the Holy Christian Church, sanctifies us in Jesus, and enlightens us with all of God's holy Gifts.The Holy Spirit is sent and given to let you, and all the baptized know, that help is on the way in Jesus, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. The Holy Spirit takes no days off, no breaks, no mid-day naps. His work is never done, yet is always being done in the Holy Christian church where we receive the forgiveness of sins. The Holy Spirit leads you to and gives you Jesus, who came to rescue, redeem, restore, and renew you. And thankfully, unlike your favorite comic book heroes, the Holy Spirit is not a work of fiction or fantasy. However, he does mask himself and work through ordinary means: water, word, bread and wine, the Gospel, the Absolution, Baptism, and the Lord's Supper. The Holy Spirit is no imaginary hero, but the very real third person of the Holy Trinity who lives and works to call you to faith in Jesus, point you to your Savior, give you faith in Jesus, keep you in the faith, and eternally fill you with Good News: help is indeed on the way in Christ who rescues you.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Creator Spirit, by whose aid The world's foundations first were laid, Come visit every humble mind; Come pour Your joys on humankind; From sin and sorrow set us free; May we Your living temples be. (LSB 500:1)

Agents of Shield Audio Commentary

The two records up for discussion in this week's podcast are both from 2006 and have at least some connection to broader post-industrial traditions, but those might be the only links between Dioxyde's aggrotech-inflected Social Phobia and the Lovecraftian ambience of Flint Glass' Nyarlathotep. It's also a news heavy week with discussion of Joy Division and New Order's inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, and the lineups for the Cold Waves and Absolution festivals.

During the introductory rite of Confession and Absolution, the pastor speaks the following words: “In the stead and by the command of my Lord Jesus Christ I forgive you all your sins, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” When visitors from another Christian tradition attend…

The Scripture readings are Ezekiel 37:1-14; 1 John 5:4-10; and John 20:19-31. The evening of the first Easter, the risen Jesus didn't knock. He simply appeared not with words of judgment or disappointment, but His with absolution, “Peace be with you.” That same peace is for you today.

Today's Reading: Luke 24:36-49Daily Lectionary: Exodus 15:19-16:12; Hebrews 10:1-18“As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, ‘Peace to you!'”  (Luke 24:36)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.See Jesus. When your anxieties and doubts fill your mind. When you feel your best isn't good enough, or you're at your worst. When you know you've said hurtful things, done hurt to others, and caused yourself harm. See Jesus.Jesus ate with tax collectors and sinners, talked with adulterers, healed the sick and the unclean, and associated with those unassociated members of society. Jesus called ordinary fishermen to be His disciples and taught them despite their unbelief and designs for the kingdom of God.For those disciples, Jesus appeared and stood among them. What they had done had to come to mind. They abandoned Him, betrayed Him, denied Him, witnessed His death and shame before the world as He hung on the cross. Yet they see Jesus Himself, among them, and He said to them, “Peace to you!”Then Jesus shows them His hands and His feet, inviting them to touch Him. As if a ghost stood before them to haunt them, He asks them for something to eat and ate the broiled fish they offered Him. What the women from the tomb and the men from Emmaus had said was true. He has risen!Their master stood among them. Proclaiming peace, Absolution— they were forgiven before God and man. Then Jesus opened their minds to understand all that the scriptures had written from the Law of Moses, the prophets, and the Psalms. Jesus, the crucified, fulfilled them; Jesus, the resurrected, fulfilled and proclaimed this to them, and now they, His preachers, would go and proclaim this truth to you. That you would know in your darkness, your suffering, your time of death, God is with you. See Jesus in His Word, in your Baptism, in bread and wine. These are where He comes to you, stands among you, and through your pastor proclaims, “Peace to you!” before God and man.Christ is risen indeed, Alleluia! He sees you, is with you, and has secured peace for you, and has proclaimed this to you in His Gospel promises, that trusting in Jesus, you may come at last to the Kingdom of your heavenly Father, and see Jesus.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Almighty God, through the resurrection of Your Son You have secured peace for our troubled consciences. Grant us this peace evermore that trusting in the merit of Your Son we may come at last to the perfect peace of heaven; through the same Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

In this Lenten sermon on John 9, we encounter Jesus Christ as the Light of the World who opens blind eyes. In this powerful Gospel account, Jesus heals the man born blind, revealing both the depth of human spiritual blindness and the life-giving power of Christ's grace. This sermon explores how John 9 exposes the temptation to trust our own spiritual sight while calling us instead to cling to the saving work of Jesus.From a confessional Lutheran perspective (LCMS), this message proclaims the clear distinction between Law and Gospel. The Law exposes the blindness of sin that afflicts every person by nature, while the Gospel reveals Christ as the Light who seeks, heals, and restores sinners. Just as Jesus pursued the healed man after he was cast out, Christ continues to seek His people today through Word and Sacrament—Holy Baptism, Absolution, and the Lord's Supper.If you struggle with doubt, temptation, or spiritual darkness, this sermon points you to the one sure anchor: Jesus Christ who gives sight to the blind and faith to those who cannot see.Support this channel:https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphBuy Me a Coffee page:buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphSubscribe for more Lutheran sermons, expository preaching, biblical teaching, and Christ-centered devotionsgrounded in Scripture.Hashtags#LentenSermon#John9#LightOfTheWorld#LutheranSermon#ExpositoryPreaching

In this Third Sunday in Lent sermon, The God Who Gives Water to the Thirsty, we explore Exodus 17:1–7, John 4:1–26, and Romans 5:1–8 to see how God meets His people in their deepest spiritual thirst. Israel stands in the wilderness with no water, questioning whether the Lord is truly among them. Yet God provides water from the rock, revealing His mercy even to a grumbling people. The New Testament reveals the deeper truth: Christ is the Rock who is struck for sinners so that living water may flow.This Lenten sermon connects the wilderness account to Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well, where Christ offers the living water that becomes a spring of eternal life. Human hearts search for meaning, forgiveness, peace with God, and true hope—but every earthly well runs dry. Only Jesus Christ satisfies the thirst of the soul.This Christian sermon and Bible teaching also highlights how Christ continues to give this living water through the means of grace—Baptism, Absolution, and the Lord's Supper—bringing forgiveness, life, and salvation.If this message strengthens your faith, consider supporting the channel:☕ Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalphWebsite written out:buymeacoffee.com/whitegandalph#LentSermon #LivingWater #Exodus17 #ChristianSermon #JesusChrist

Patrick opens the phones to questions about faith, baptism, and what truly defines the Catholic Church, moving from heartfelt concerns about re-baptism to passionate exchanges with skeptics like Rich, who challenges Jesus’s divinity and the origins of Catholic belief. He fields queries on confession and rituals, all while offering sharp insights, scriptural responses, and the occasional smile when listeners push back or disagree. Calls range from bewildered to bold, and Patrick doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff as he meets every topic, from indulgences to religious freedom, head on. Justin - I feel like Holy Spirit is calling me to be rebaptized. My pastor does not agree and won't do it. Do you have any thoughts? (00:34) Rich - I discovered that Jesus denounced Catholicism, so how could he be the founder? (09:08) John - Do we need to say the Act of Contrition before you get Absolution? (23:04) Dolores – Should we place limitations on the rights of the religious? Didn't Utah have to renounce polygamy before it became a state? (31:14) Patrick shares some emails in response to Rich’s call earlier in this hour Nick - I was baptized as a Ukrainian Catholic. I had the sacrament of Confirmation as an infant. How was this valid? (40:04) Doug - What is required to get a plenary indulgence? (42:41) Originally aired 10/30/2025
