Jesus, our Good Shepherd, embodies unconditional love and care, meeting our every need, guiding us through life's trials, and restoring our souls with complete forgiveness. He loves us, His sheep, so much that He laid down His life so that we would be safe eternally. Parents are called to mirror this love by nurturing their children with care, guidance, and a commitment to their faith. May our Good Shepherd's boundless love give us comfort and encouragement every single day.Pastor Schroeder's sermon preached at Faith on May 11, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Because He lives, we see success clearly now. Jesus' resurrection pierces through the fog of a sin-clouded world, unveiling a clear understanding of true success. True success isn't about what you achieve but about being where Jesus places you. It's trusting His perfect wisdom, whether you're soothing a crying infant or tackling daily work. Even in moments of failure, Christ's triumph covers you with grace. Ultimately, regardless of your successes or failures, Jesus' victory assures you of eternal success.

How does Jesus approach his fearful disciples on the evening of that first Easter Sunday? Does he scold them? No, he brings a word of comfort. He calms them with the peace that only He can give. That same unending, unchanging peace is also ours because of Jesus' Resurrection. The peace that He gives us both calms our hearts and emboldens us to share the Good News. Just as Jesus calmed and commissioned his disciples, he also calms and commissions us to boldly proclaim this life-changing truth: He is alive!Vicar Behm's sermon preached at Faith on April 27, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Intro/Outro Music: "Depth of Field" by David Hilowitz

In this sermon, we explore the timeless Parable of the Two Sons from Luke 15, a story that reveals the relentless, seeking love of our Heavenly Father for all his children. This love is certain whether the children have wandered far in reckless pursuit of freedom or remained close yet lost in self-righteousness. Through the younger son's descent into the pig sty and the older son's resentment in the fields, we uncover how God runs to meet us wherever we are, offering forgiveness, restoration, and a place in His celebration.

Do you view repentance as a gift or a burden? In this sermon, we explore the liberating truth that repentance is another way that God shows us his grace. The unsettling story of Pilate mixing Galilean blood with temple sacrifices sets the stage for Jesus' words in Luke 13, shifting our focus from others' sins to our own need for repentance. Meanwhile, the parable of a barren fig tree, spared by a patient gardener, showcases God's enduring mercy. Together, these narratives unveil repentance as a gift that allows us to rest in Jesus' love.Vicar Behm's sermon preached at Faith on March 23, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Citizenship matters. Paul wrote to Christians in Philippi who understood the benefits of being Roman citizens, and he reminded them that Christians are citizens of heaven.

“The battle is the Lord's.” That short statement is both incredibly comforting and shockingly frustrating. We love to hear those words and to be reminded that God is ultimately in control. On the other hand, we want to stand up and fight for ourselves. We want to show off our self-sufficiency. But what if we couldn't fight the battle that needed to be won? Join us for this sermon as we unpack the epic story of David vs. Goliath, showing how David points us to our greater Champion who always fights for us, Jesus.

Picture the disciples, their hearts soaring with dreams of a victorious Savior, only to hear Jesus predict a path of suffering and death—a collision of hope and hard truth that mirrors our own letdowns in life's big moments. This sermon delves into their surreal glimpse of Jesus radiant on a mountain, joined by ancient voices of law and prophecy, as they grapple with a future they didn't expect. It's a meditation on the sting of shattered assumptions—be it in relationships, wellness, or divine plans—and the quiet question of whether something greater might linger beneath the surface.

In this sermon, we reflect on the profound theme of mercy, inspired by Jesus' command to love beyond what feels natural or easy. Rooted in his boundless love and sacrifice, we explore how Christ empowers us to share moments of mercy with others, even in a world prone to conflict. We'll ponder: Strengthened by Jesus' love, what moment of mercy might we offer today? Vicar Behm's sermon preached at Faith on February 23, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

How do you reconcile faith in God with the presence of so much evil and brokenness in the world? Some people look at the suffering around them and conclude: If God is good, he must not be in control; and if he's in control, he's certainly not good. But what about for believers like us? How does suffering and brokenness inform our understanding of God?Pastor Schroeder's sermon preached at Faith on February 16, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

In a world that craves comfort, success, and easy answers, are we giving people what they want or what they truly need? In this sermon, we dive into Jesus' mission on earth, not just as a miracle worker, but as the Savior who came to rescue a broken world. His agenda wasn't about popularity or earthly success; it was about proclaiming the Gospel. As the Church, that's our mission, too.

In this sermon, we explore the powerful truth behind the phrase, “New Year, Same You.” While the turning of a calendar year brings new opportunities, it also reminds us of what hasn't changed—our struggles, our failures, and our need for a Savior. Reflecting on Jesus' baptism, we uncover how his perfect life, death, and resurrection redefine our identity. You are not just a sinner carrying the weight of your past; you are a saint, declared God's beloved child through baptism.
