This week in chapel, we were blessed to welcome Pastor Tom Moldenhauer from Luther Prep in Watertown, Wisconsin, who led us in worship and shared a powerful message based on Psalm 46.
Pastor Moldenhauer reminded us that the world around us is often chaotic and noisy, constantly sending messages that tell us we need more—more money, more friends, more success—or that we don’t need God to be happy. Sometimes the loudest voices come from within, whether it’s pride telling us we can handle everything on our own, or fear and anxiety making us feel uncertain.
But God speaks louder than all of that.
Through Psalm 46, we were reminded of the comfort found in these words: “He lifts His voice, and the earth melts.” Our God is stronger than the chaos, greater than our fears, and able to quiet every anxious thought. In Him, we are safe. He carries our pain, suffering, and worries, giving us peace through His promises.
Because of Christ, we can be still. We can rest peacefully and calmly in God’s Word, knowing that heaven is our home.
Pastor Moldenhauer also shared with us about life at Luther Prep School. At Luther Prep, students grow in God’s Word every day while being equipped to share the message of Jesus with the world. Students come from all across the country to live and learn on campus, where they enjoy many opportunities both inside and outside the classroom. From athletics to drama and music, student life at Luther Prep is filled with ways to develop God-given talents while growing in faith.
After chapel, Pastor Moldenhauer spent some time in each of our classrooms answering questions about life at Luther Prep.
Thank you, Pastor Moldenhauer, for sharing God’s comforting promises with us and for giving us a glimpse into the blessings of Lutheran highschool education!
