Sermon Audio: The Spirit vs. The Flesh (Gal. 5:16ff)
Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity
06 September 2026

Don’t give up! We are engaged in a fierce battle. The Spirit is against the flesh, and the flesh against the Spirit. Some days the Spirit seems to have the upper hand. At other times, the flesh appears to be holding sway over us. But Christ has intervened in our lives—He has freed us from the curse and punishments of the Law in order that we might live in love for God and neighbor. Your resurrection is coming, do not lose heart. Our aim is not perfection, but persistence in Christ!

Sermon Audio: “The Merciful Samaritan” (Luke 10:23-37)
Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity
30 August 2026

An expert in the Mosaic Law determines to test Jesus, asking him what he must do to enter eternal life. Our sinful nature often reckons we must DO SOMETHING in order to be saved, to contribute towards it, to deserve it. Jesus and the lawyer get into an exchange about the Law and “who is my neighbor?” The Good Samaritan illustrates what a neighbor is, in our Lord’s mind. It’s you…

Sermon Audio: “How Can They Hear…?” (Rom. 10:9-17)
Twelfth Sunday after Trinity
23 August 2026

God is pleased to save us through the foolishness of preaching. The Lord sends His external Word to us on the lips of fellow sinners. From fear of being ‘preachy’ we’re often hesitant to speak, and likewise from fear of rejection we fall silent. The Lord brings His body and blood to our lips, to cleanse and consecrate them to speak His Word in prayer and praise, to the service of our neighbors.
