Hands can tell you a lot about a person. Rough and rugged. Smooth and silky. Manicured or machine-greased. Take a look at God’s hands and they tell us a lot about what he’s like. Mighty. Merciful. And nailed to a cross. 1 Peter 5:6-11. Pastor Daron Lindemann. October 21, 2018. holyword.net

How To Be Rich In God, Not In Greed by Holy Word Lutheran Church

Mark 9:43-50. Pastor Daron Lindemann. September 30, 2018. holyword.net

Let’s learn something from the humblest man ever to live, and our God who became even more humble than that. Pastor Daron Lindemann. September 23, 2018. www.holyword.net
