Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body (Proverbs 16:24). If we all made it a daily practice to think before we speak, our words would be more gracious, and gracious words have power to bring peace in stressful situations and healing to our bodies, because stress is reduced by gracious words. To help us prevent words coming out before we think about them, we are offering a simple wristband that says think. My hope is by wearing this wristband, you will be reminded to pay attention to what you are getting ready to say and make sure it is appropriate. And we're using an acronym of the word think to help us evaluate our words. T is for true; speak only what is true. H is for helpful; make sure your words will benefit those you speak to. I means speak inspiring words that will encourage others. And now: N is for necessary: Speak only what is necessary. In other words, don't talk too much. Sin is not ended by multiplying words, but the prudent hold their tongues (Proverbs 10:19). But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned (Matthew 12:36-37). Talking too much can be a real problem. They tell us that women talk more than men, and if that is true, we women need to be doubly careful about how much we say. We don't need to fill empty spaces with empty words. Silence can indeed be golden, and for those of us who are talkers, we need to take seriously this exhortation to speak only what is necessary. I think we're all aware that a person who talks too much is not a person we particularly enjoy being with. Listening to others is the skill we want to develop, so we give others the respect of listening to them instead of inflicting our unnecessary words on anyone who happens to be near. Before you speak, think “Is it necessary?” You'll probably say fewer words!
In today's sermon, Pastor Darrell preaches from Psalm 23 and John 10, in which we learn of our Good Shepherd's gracious provision and invitations that He grants to us. Central in experiencing the life that the Lord offers is our listening to and responding to His voice and guidance. He invites us to find our satisfaction in the gracious provision He offers.
Matthew 7:21-29

Send me a Text Message!Don't worry, we're still in Nehemiah. We'll be in Nehemiah all the way to the end of Nehemiah. But I'm changing the series title, because the first half of Nehemiah is more about rebuilding broken places while the second half is more about rebuilding broken people. I'm calling the series Awaken Revival, because those are two words that signify a move of God that rebuilds people. When it comes to rebuilding broken people, the job is never done! But what we find is that when Awakening comes, God gracious hand is not just for broken places, it's for broken people!

Pastor Patrick Austin opens with a warm and relatable childhood memory — sneaking a peek at the Sunday sports section before church — to introduce what he calls one of the most misunderstood and most neglected of the Ten Commandments: "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy" (Exodus 20:8). Rather than offering a checklist of what is and isn't allowed on Sundays, Pastor Patrick reframes the entire conversation. God has graciously given us a day of rest, he argues, not as a burden to bear, but as a gift designed for our good and for His glory. In a world addicted to busyness, productivity, and the constant buzz of notifications, we have drifted far from God's good design of work and rest — and in doing so, we are missing out on something far greater than a day off. At the heart of the sermon, Pastor Patrick walks through three ways this day of rest functions as a gracious gift. First, it positions us rightly before God, reminding us weekly that He is the Creator, the Provider, and our Savior — and we are not. Second, it points us to the Lord of the Sabbath, Jesus Christ, who in Matthew 11:28-30 extends an open invitation to cease striving and find true rest in Him. Third, drawing from Hebrews 4, it prepares us for the eternal rest that is still to come — a rest that no promised land, no vacation, and no Sunday afternoon nap can fully satisfy. The weekly rhythm of rest is a foretaste of heaven itself. Pastor Patrick closes with practical and pastoral wisdom for how believers at Bay Leaf Baptist Church can honor the Lord's Day — by gathering faithfully for worship, showing mercy to others as Jesus did, working diligently during the week, and resting well on Sundays. With refreshing honesty, he shares his own struggle as a self-described control freak who had to learn — sometimes painfully — that his rest is not found in his work or his striving, but in Christ and in Christ alone.

Send me a Text Message!Nothing is beyond God. No problem is greater than His power. No sin goes deeper than His grace. No heart is so damaged, neglected or hard that He cannot breathe into it, new life. But it requires His gracious hand. Nehemiah's description of the story of his success was simple. "The gracious hand of God was upon me." We need his hand upon us, but here's the deal. "His gracious hand is on gracious people." That's what I see in Nehemiah chapter 5. You know some of us think that the word "if" is missing from God's vocabulary. But God uses "if" all the time. They are called conditional promises. And here is one of those conditional promises, (Proverbs 21:13) "If you close your ears to the cry of the poor, I will not answer when you call out." God's gracious hand is on gracious people!

Psalm 116 finds its place in the life of the Church both on Maundy Thursday and during the Offertory in the Divine Service. Hearing the psalm first on the lips of Jesus, we hear Him pray for deliverance from death and receive comfort in knowing that the Father has answered Jesus by delivering Him into death for our trespasses and then raising Him from the grave for our justification. This helps us to cry out these same words in prayer to our heavenly Father who rescues us from death for the sake of Christ. Rev. Harrison Goodman, Executive Director of Mission and Theology for Higher Things, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 116. To learn more about Higher Things, visit higherthings.org. Join Sharper Iron this spring to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
What if people described you the same way the Bible describes God? Gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in love. This is what it looks like when we truly follow Jesus and live out the fruit of the Spirit!
This recording is a condensed version of the sermon preached at Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mankato, Minnesota on May 10, 2026. You can watch the full recording on our YouTube Channel. Sermon Text: Psalm 145:13-21 (NKJV) Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And Your dominion endures throughout all generations. 14 The LORD upholds all who fall, And raises up all who are bowed down. 15 The eyes of all look expectantly to You, And You give them their food in due season. 16 You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing. 17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways, Gracious in all His works. 18 The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. 19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them. 20 The LORD preserves all who love Him, But all the wicked He will destroy. 21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD, And all flesh shall bless His holy name Forever and ever. Theme: The LORD's Kingdom is Very Good
Jesus has moved through Mark's Gospel with remarkable composure. But in Mark 14, He falls to the ground, and begins to tremble. Mark gives an intimate glimpse into the interior life of our Savior. We will see what undid Him, why He went to the cross despite praying for another way, and who it was all for.
God gives light and truth to His people through His Word. Verses 129-136 of Psalm 119 show us the treasure of unfolding the truth of Scripture for more understanding. We are to study it, treasure it, and by God's grace both understand it and live it out for the glory of His name!
David praises the LORD for bringing him up and giving him healing ultimately from death. Such praise belongs not only to David but to all Christians because God's anger over our sins quickly turns to His gracious favor for the sake of Christ. Therefore, we cry to Him for help, knowing that His promise of resurrection turns our momentary mourning into eternal singing. Rev. Philip Hoppe, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Colby, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 30. To learn more about Trinity Lutheran, visit trinitycolby.org.

Send me a Text Message!In Nehemiah 2, Nehemiah makes this statement, "God's gracious hand was upon me." In other words, Nehemiah is saying, "This story was written by the hand of God. It wasn't my strategy, leadership or plan. It wasn't my resources, no it was the gracious hand of God." Isn't that the story we want written in our lives? I don't know how God works with you, but often as I'm reading the Bible, whether it's my own time with God, or study time for a teaching, there will be a single line or thought that sticks with me. Nehemiah's words here have stuck with me for well over a decade. They have become one of my most frequent prayers...God we need your gracious hand upon us.

David prays that the LORD's discipline would be gracious rather than wrathful, so that the LORD would bring healing to his troubled body and soul. The LORD's steadfast love is the foundation of such a prayer, even as tears flow due to the sin and suffering we experience. Yet the prayer of the Christian remains confident in the LORD's answer and protection from all enemies. Rev. David Appold, pastor at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Paducah, KY, joins host Rev.

For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly. For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God. For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in His steps. He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in His mouth. When He was reviled, He did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but continued entrusting Himself to Him who judges justly. He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed. For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. (1 Peter 2:19-25)
