“Unless I see…I will never believe!” We hear these words of Thomas and shake our heads at his doubt and denial. “How could he be so foolish?” Yet is it not true that such words, or at least thoughts, come from us as well? So often we are tempted to trust only what we see and deny what Christ calls us to believe. Yet our risen Lord calls us to walk by faith and not by sight—to trust him and his Word as we follow Jesus. Why? He has kept every promise and conquered our greatest enemy-death. By faith, we see our Lord and God!

The Bible reading for this message is John 20:19-31.

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

Uncertainty is the worst. It causes stress. It leaves our minds spinning and burdened. Yet uncertainty gets even worse when nothing around us seems certain. Have you felt that way at all since last spring? We all have experienced it in some way, shape, or form in the past year or more. In such uncertain times, we need hope. We need answers—solutions to what we are experiencing whether that is with the pandemic, our job situation, our family situation, our health, even our nation. So where can we find hope? How about looking inside Christ’s empty tomb? A tomb probably is not the first place you would look for hope, but you will find it in the emptiness of Christ’s tomb. Why? Jesus lives! Because he is risen, we have certainty. We have hope even in the most uncertain of times. So rejoice! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!

The Bible reading for this message is 1 Corinthians 15:19-20.

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

On Palm Sunday, the writer to the Hebrews encouraged us to “keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, who is the author of our faith and the one who brings it to its goal.”  During the holy days between Holy Thursday and Easter Sunday, we have a clear opportunity to do just that—to fix our eyes on Jesus as he makes his way from an upper room to the halls of justice to a cross and finally from an empty tomb—all for us. In spite of the shame, Jesus endures all that to win our salvation that we may not grow weary and lose heart.

The Bible reading for this message is John 10:1-18.

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!

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.
