Lutheran Preaching and Teaching from St. John Random Lake, Wisconsin
Acts 15:1–21 (NKJV)1 And certain men came down from Judea and taught the brethren, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.” 2 Therefore, when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and dispute with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them should go up to Jerusalem, to the apostles and elders, about this question.3 So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, describing the conversion of the Gentiles; and they caused great joy to all the brethren. 4 And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders; and they reported all things that God had done with them. 5 But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”6 Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter. 7 And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: “Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. 8 So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, 9 and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10 Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they.”12 Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles. 13 And after they had become silent, James answered, saying, “Men and brethren, listen to me: 14 Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name. 15 And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written:16 ‘After this I will returnAnd will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down;I will rebuild its ruins,And I will set it up;17 So that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name,Says the Lord who does all these things.'18 “Known to God from eternity are all His works. 19 Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God, 20 but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from things strangled, and from blood. 21 For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”

Mary, Queen of Apostles is a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary that honors her essential, maternal role alongside the apostles, providing quiet guidance and prayer in the Upper Room as they waited for the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. The title's scriptural Roots draws primarily from the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 1:13-14), which describes Mary praying with the apostles as the Church was being formed. She is revered by certain religious orders for her evangelizing spirit and her example of how to present Jesus to the world. The liturgical feast of Mary, Queen of Apostles is celebrated on the Saturday immediately following the Solemnity of the Ascension.

How do we respond when we face opposition to the Gospel? Because God means all evil for good, we must boldly proclaim His praise.
Friends of the Rosary,Today, May 14, is the Feast of St. Matthias, Apostle and Martyr.Also, today, in the United States, the ecclesiastical provinces of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Hartford, Newark, and Omaha, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension.With the victory Christ the Lord gained by His resurrection from the dead, it is today made perfect. On this day, Christ's triumph is complete.With the Ascension to the Father, the Glorified Christ now shares in the dominion of heaven and earth; He now rules all hearts and all souls.As we read in the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 1:15-17, 20-26), after the Ascension of Jesus, St. Peter proposed to the assembled faithful that they choose a disciple of Christ to fill the place of the traitor Judas.“Then they prayed,“You, Lord, who know the hearts of all,show which one of these two you have chosento take the place in this apostolic ministryfrom which Judas turned away to go to his own place.”Then they gave lots to them, and the lot fell upon Matthias,and he was counted with the Eleven Apostles.”The Church venerates St. Matthias on an equal footing with the other Apostles, who gave testimony to what they saw and heard in their lives with our Lord.St. Matthias would be martyred, receiving "the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him."The name of St. Matthias is mentioned in the Canon of the Mass.Today marks the beginning of the Pentecost Novena (9 days of prayer) to the Holy Spirit,Alleluia! Christ is Risen!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

3.22.2026 - Acts: The Holy Spirit & The First Disciples - The Complete Apostles - Acts 1:12-26.m4a by Anacostia River Church
March 1st, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galatians 1:10-24In this powerful message from Galatians, Matt Darby reminds us that the Gospel is not man's idea—it is God's revelation. And when that Gospel truly comes into your life, it doesn't just inform you… it transforms you.The book of Galatians is an urgent warning: don't turn to a different gospel. As Paul defends his ministry against accusations of people-pleasing and watering down the truth, he does something deeply personal—he tells his story. Why? To prove two things:The Gospel he preached came directly from Jesus.The Gospel he received completely changed his life.In Galatians 1:10–24, Paul confronts the charge that he softened the message to gain popularity. But a man who was beaten, stoned, rejected, and scarred for Christ (Galatians 6:17) is not chasing applause. He is chasing faithfulness. Paul declares that he did not shape this message—it was revealed to him by Jesus Himself.Matt walks us through Paul's dramatic conversion in Acts of the Apostles (Acts 9), where Saul—the violent persecutor of Christians—was interrupted by the risen Christ. The one “breathing threats and murder” became the one boldly proclaiming, “Jesus is the Son of God.” That is amazing grace.Every testimony has three parts:Who I was before JesusHow I met JesusHow my life has changed since JesusPaul never got over what Christ had done for him. From Acts of the Apostles 22 and 26 to Philippians 3 and 1 Timothy 1, he kept telling the same story—not because he lacked new material, but because grace had rewritten his life.This message presses a personal question: Has Jesus ever interrupted your life? You can know the language of Christianity and still be unchanged. But when the Gospel truly comes from Jesus, it transforms your life into a testimony that points back to Him.God's grace is not for the polished parts of you. It's for the worst in you. The ashamed parts. The hidden parts. The rebellious parts. Grace does not respond to your goodness—it meets you in your weakness.And when that kind of grace finds you, you don't hide your story—you tell it.Do you have a testimony?Can you articulate it?Who needs to hear it this week?This episode is a call to return to the true Gospel—and to boldly share the story of how it changed you.Do you know JESUS? https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesusNeed PRAYER? https://www.nbgilmer.org/praySupport through GIVING: https://www.nbbctx.org/giving
