Keep the Main Thing

Welcome to another episode of Keep The Main Thing Podcast with Pastor Lee Evenson.

Given that it is Holy Week and Easter is this coming Sunday, April 9, our fifth podcast in our initial series of sermons from Reverend Leland Evenson will be one of his Easter messages delivered at Vision Of Glory Lutheran Church on April 19, 1987. Titled, “Bringing Good Things to Life”.

Welcome to another episode of Keep The Main Thing Podcast with Pastor Lee Evenson. 

Today’s sermon from Pastor Lee is from December 1986. It is titled “When life turns around”. 

It is a noteworthy message on repentance. He makes some great points, using his own experiences. 

Pastor Lee starts his talk describing how by nature we are heading the wrong way because we live in a sinful world. He has an interesting comment about the world’s sinful dilemma, “we’re asking the right questions but getting the wrong answers.”

Welcome to another episode of Keep The Main Thing Podcast with Pastor Lee Evenson.

Podcast #3 is entitled “Long Range Planning”. First delivered in November 1986, Pastor Evenson refers to Luke 21 as the text for this particular sermon.

This sermon reminds us that there will be an end to our earthly existence and to the earth itself. He reminds us to look to eternity, to be prepared for persecution as a Christian, and encourages us to persevere.

Some great stories and analogies in this 26 minutes.

Welcome to another episode of “Keep the Main Thing” Podcast, sermons and messages from Pastor Lee Evenson.

While we may be a little early (or late) when it comes to Christmas, we are sharing Paster Lee’s sermons in chronological order. We believe this message was shared on Christmas Eve of 1985.

We hope you enjoy this12-minute message from Pastor Lee – Christmas Without Shrinkage.

Coming March 22 will be the inaugural Podcast of “Keep the Main Thing”, sermons and messages from Pastor Lee Evenson. Leland Evenson was an Ordained Lutheran Minister. It is estimated that over his 60+ years in active ministry, Pastor Lee as he was referred to, delivered over 5000 sermons, and presided over a thousand weddings and funerals. We have been able to obtain just a fraction of those messages, primarily from the late 80’s and early 90’s, and wanted to share them with his past congregations and new followers as well. We know there are a number of people excited to hear some of Pastor’s old messages and we are delighted we can do that. 

We are also setting up a website www.keepthemainthing.com. We will post the podcasts and hope the website will also be a place where people can post messages, stories and memories of Pastor Lee, and the impact his ministry had on their lives. 

We look forward to sharing with you these still timely and impactful messages from Pastor Lee. We hope that hearing them again will bring back memories, inspire you, and continue to build up your faith. 

Episode 2 will be published on 3/27.

Thank you.
