Demo before Renno | Jeremiah 23:16–29 Anyone who has ever done a home renovation knows the mess comes before the beauty. Walls must be torn down before they can be rebuilt, dust clouds the air before fresh paint can be applied. In the same way, God's Word works like fire and like a hammer. It breaks down what is false, corrupt, and in the way—so that new life in Christ may be built up. Sin isn't just a blemish to be covered over; it's a deep corruption that requires demolition. The Word of the Lord refines us, burns away the dross, and rebuilds us in Christ's image. We must die before we rise.
Are You Living an Anxious Driven Life? Luke 12:22–34 | Do Not Be Anxious What drives your life—faith or fear? Jesus confronts the anxious heart and calls us to trust, not in ourselves, but in our heavenly Father who provides all things. Just as children rest securely in the care of their parents, so we are invited to live freely under the Father's loving provision. Anxiety fades when we remember who holds us.

For more than 60 years, the Sheboygan Asylum housed hundreds of patients living with mental illness, developmental disabilities and substance abuse disorders. The facility closed its doors in 2002. But for the past six years, the Fox Valley Ghost Hunters have been offering tours of its abandoned halls. WPR's Danielle Kaeding tagged along.

Our Full Baptismal Inheritance | Luke 12:13–21 How much is enough? That's the question that drives both the man in the crowd and the parable Jesus tells. Key Takeaways: We're tempted to believe the lie that more is always better—more stuff, more security, more control. But Jesus confronts this false security with the story of a rich man who builds bigger barns yet dies before enjoying them. The problem isn't wealth itself—it's when we worship it. Earthly treasures fade, but Christ gives us a better inheritance: His righteousness, His forgiveness, and His eternal life. Sealed in baptism, fed in His Supper, and grounded in His Word, this is the treasure that will not perish. Reflect on what truly endures.

A hostile crowd booed Republican Congressman Bryan Steil at an in-person town hall meeting last night in Elkhorn. A Madison photographer chronicles a pair of cranes who've adopted a gosling. And for our Wisconsin Road Trip series, WPR's own Joe Schulz tried surfing in the "Malibu of the Midwest."
Sheboygan brands itself as Wisconsin’s “Malibu of the Midwest” for its popular freshwater surfing scene on Lake Michigan. Surfing is a year-round sport in the community. And WPR’s Joe Schulz decided to try it himself.

Our Father Luke 11:1–13 What kind of Father invites you to pray? One who gave His Son for you. When Jesus teaches us to pray, He begins not with “Almighty God” or “Righteous Judge,” but with “Father.” That one word changes everything—it reveals not just a title but a relationship. In Christ, His Father is now your Father. His prayer is now your prayer. And yet, how easily we forget. We treat prayer like a last resort or a vending machine. We love the gifts more than the Giver. We go it alone. Earthly fathers, too, fall short—speaking in anger, failing to guide, or remaining absent. The Law shows us where we fall short as children and as parents. But Jesus points us to the cross, where the Father gave His Son to make us His own. In Holy Baptism, the Spirit teaches us to cry, “Abba, Father.” He gives us the courage to ask, seek, and knock. And the Father listens. He delights to hear your voice. That's why, just before the Supper, we pray the “Our Father.” It's the family table prayer of God's children. Here, the Father feeds us with the Body and Blood of His Son and says, “Welcome home.” ✝️ Worship with Us at Trinity – Sheboygan, WI Sundays – 8:00 & 10:45 a.m. Mondays – 6:30 p.m. https://trinitysheboygan.org

The One Who Serves | Luke 10:38–42 Mary sat at the Lord's feet. Martha served with urgency. But Jesus did not rebuke Martha's service—He simply reminded her of what was most needful. In this moment from Luke's Gospel, we find both Mary and Martha giving and receiving. And in the middle of it all stands Jesus—the One who serves. He teaches, He receives, and He continues to do the same for us today. When we gather in worship, Christ serves us with His Word and Sacrament. And when we serve one another, He tells us that He receives it as service unto Himself. Key Takeaways: • Jesus comes to serve us in Word and Meal • We receive His gifts, and we respond in service • In serving others, we serve Christ Himself

Jesus' Neighbor, and Yours Luke 10:25–37 | The Parable of the Good Samaritan Who is my neighbor? It's a question asked not just by a lawyer in Jesus' day, but by many of us still today. In one of the most well-known parables, Jesus shows that our neighbor is not defined by geography, background, or even behavior—but by need. The one who needs your mercy is your neighbor. The hymn reminds us, “The Law of God is Good and Wise” (LSB 579), and that law calls us to love, serve, and show mercy to all whom God places before us—yes, even the unlovable, the overlooked, and the outright difficult. Whether it's the wounded, the wicked, or the weary, the call is the same: “Go and do likewise.” Christ Himself is the ultimate Good Samaritan—He did not pass us by in our sin and death but came to us, bore our burdens, and paid the cost to make us whole. Now, in His mercy, we are set free to do the same for others.

What Brings You Joy? | Luke 10:1-20 On this Fourth of July weekend, we pause to reflect on a deeper kind of joy—one that cannot be shaken by trials or taken away by time. True joy isn't just a smile or fleeting emotion. It's a lasting peace, rooted in Jesus Christ and His finished work. In Luke 10, Jesus reminds us not to rejoice in worldly success or power, but in something far greater: “Rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Sin distorts God's gifts and leaves us restless. But through the cross, Jesus won for us complete forgiveness—removing guilt, shame, and fear. Our eternal joy was purchased by His suffering and death, and it is renewed each time we receive His Body and Blood in Holy Communion. We give thanks for the earthly freedoms we enjoy—especially the freedom to worship and proclaim the Gospel. But even these are temporary compared to the unshakable joy of belonging to God's Kingdom, a joy sealed in Baptism and nourished in the Church. Rejoice! Your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life. ✝️ Key Takeaway: Our joy isn't found in success, safety, or earthly freedom, but in Jesus—crucified, risen, and present with us in Word and Sacrament.

The Face of God | Luke 8:26–39 What do we see when we look into the face of Jesus? In a world that reads faces to judge character, status, and identity, Christ reveals something far deeper: the very heart of God. In this week's Gospel, we encounter Jesus as He heals a man possessed by demons—showing His divine authority, compassion, and the unshakable peace He alone can give. Through this act and through His journey to the cross, Jesus shows us not only His power, but His purpose: to set His face toward Jerusalem for our salvation.

Jesus Overcomes Our Estrangement | Luke 8:26–39 Estrangement is more than distance—it's a broken relationship, where communication has collapsed and people live in separation, sometimes even hostility. In Luke 8, we meet a man who embodies this estrangement: isolated, tormented, and living among the dead. Yet Jesus crosses the sea to reach even him. In this sermon, we see how Jesus heals the man possessed by a legion of demons, not merely to show power over evil—but to overcome separation. Separation from self. From others. From God. That same Savior still comes to us today—through the boat of His Church, in the power of His Word and Spirit. He brings healing where there is hurt, communion where there is division, and peace where there was once only torment. Jesus overcomes our estrangement. Key Takeaway: Jesus doesn't avoid the broken—He seeks them. He brings the Gospel to the spiritually isolated, and He restores us to the family of God.
