Death is not escape but judgment, and only in Christ’s mercy do we find true deliverance and rest for our souls.

Pastoral installation sermon for Quinn Clement-Schlimm

Why do the wicked prosper? A proper view of eternity reveals the error of the question.

We ought to long for the unity and worship of heaven, and strive for it even now.

God runs toward the wayward who humbly repent, pouring out His grace and inviting everyone to join the celebration.

Humble, childlike faith in Christ, not status, effort, or wealth, is the only way into God’s kingdom.

True endurance is lived out in decisive obedience now and unwavering hope for Jesus’ return.

Christian contentment is found not in circumstance but firmly in the gospel.

For the sake of the gospel and God’s kingdom, true riches are measured by a heart freed from greed and overflowing in good works.

For the sake of the gospel and God’s household, we prize and protect the integrity of those entrusted to shepherd us.
