In the early centuries of the Christian church, the weeks leading up to Easter were a time of instruction and preparation for God’s people, particularly those who were new to the faith or interested in it. Time would be spent during the 40 days of Lent to instruct and prepare these new believers for the reception of the Holy Supper at the celebration of Easter. During our midweek Lenten worship services, we prepare our hearts for the Feast with the help of Martin Luther’s Small Catechism as we review the basic teachings of God’s Word. In this message, we reviewed the Ministry of the Keys and Confession.

The Bible reading for this message is John 20:21-23.

Jesus gives us a glimpse of his human nature and the anguish he felt as he considered dying for us. At the same time, we also get a glimpse of his divine resolution to glorify his heavenly Father and deliver us from eternal death at just the right time when all of human history came to the right moment. What a price he paid for us! May our love for him and his compassion grow greater every day!

The Bible reading for this message is John 12:20-33.

Remember your Savior Jesus loves you! May he bless you with his grace!

God is passionate for holiness and righteousness. We see that zeal as Jesus clears out the temple early in his ministry. Only with his help can I love God’s law as Christ does. Only with his help can I love the cross of Christ. Because I cannot keep God’s law, Christ did the unimaginable. He took the punishment for my law-breaking on himself and has given me peace.

Remember your Savior Jesus loves you! May he bless you with his grace!

God is powerful enough to work through my sufferings in this life for my eternal good. He does not create evil, but he does work through it for his good purposes for me. For that reason, I can even praise God in the midst of hardship. Since I know that Jesus suffered immeasurably for me, I give thanks because God does not take my suffering lightly, but loves and cares for me deeply.

The Bible reading for this message is Mark 8:31-38.

Remember your Savior Jesus loves you! May he bless you with his grace!

Some days I feel like a failure, especially when I fail God and give in to temptation. Yet God tells me I am a conqueror. He tells me that he has given me total victory. I have peace in my life because Jesus resisted a life of temptations for me and defeated Satan through his perfect love. Through Christ, I really am victorious.

Remember your Savior Jesus loves you! May he bless you with his grace!

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, the Christian’s 40-day journey to Jesus’ cross and tomb in anticipation of Easter. Ash Wednesday begins the Christian’s Lenten journey with a reminder of our mortality and a call to repentance. Ashes remind us forcefully of our need for God’s redeeming grace as they recall words from the rite for Christian burial: “…earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust…,” words that will someday be spoken over us all. 

The Bible reading for this message is Joel 2:12-19.

Remember your Savior Jesus loves you! May he bless you with his grace!

During the church season of Epiphany, so much has been revealed to us about Jesus—the Son sent by God, the Answer to the skeptic, the Shepherd feeding his flock, the Teacher with authority, and the Savior who cares. We have a clearer understanding of who this Jesus is, but we need to follow Jesus up the mountain to witness him transform his appearance to reveal who he truly is above all. Perhaps we can be like Jesus’ disciples and forget that he is not just a human being like us, but he is also the Lord of glory and grace. In one sense, that is terribly terrifying, but in another sense, that is tremendously comforting. As we look ahead to the next journey through the church season of Lent that will take us to the cross, we follow Jesus and find comfort.

The Bible reading for this message is Mark 9:2-9.
