- By Rev. Ed Borchardt, Pastor of Zion Lutheran Church HardwickJune 03, 2026I’m not clear the number of phones I have owned. I recall my first cell phone was an actual phone in a carry bag that could be used in a vehicle. I thought this would be my first and last phone. After all, could it get any better? Indeed it has. From that first phone to a flip phone. I felt as if I was on the “Star Ship Enterprise!” “Beam me up Scotty!” Then came a phone with internet, texting…

- By Joshua Hayden, Pastor of Living Rock Church in LuverneMay 27, 2026I have been thinking about the word “rest” for a couple months now as I have been preparing for a season of rest. The leadership and members of Living Rock Church have gifted me a sabbatical this summer. A sabbatical, if you are unfamiliar with it, is a time of rest, replenishment, and to refocus on what God has called you to as a pastor. Here are some observations I have made from my own…

- By Manda Seensma, NextGen Pastor of Rock River Community ChurchMay 20, 2026Seasons are changing, and it’s time to rummage! Do you associate spring with rummage sales, garage sales, or even junk days? Apparently, there is a difference between a rummage sale and a garage sale. A quick internet search for “what is a rummage sale” shows that a rummage sale is a sale of donated, miscellaneous second-hand items—such as clothing, household goods, toys, and books—organized to…

- By Pastor Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran ChurchMay 13, 2026The mother gazes down at the baby snuggled close to her breast. For a moment, their eyes lock. In that brief instant a bond is made; a love is expressed without words. She is his, and he is hers. A loving, timeless phenomenon that we all understand. It is a tender scene that many of us have witnessed. This also is a beautiful image that God uses to express his abundant love for us. “Can a…

- By Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, St. John Lutheran Church, LuverneMay 06, 2026The First Amendment says Congress shall make no law prohibiting the free exercise of religion or abridging the freedom of speech. Most Americans take that for granted. However, what happened in Finland recently should give all Christians concern. On March 26, the Supreme Court of Finland convicted Dr. Päivi Räsänen, a sitting member of parliament and former government minister, along with…

- By Pastor Sarah Zender, Grace Lutheran ChurchApril 29, 2026As our hope of spring becomes more confident, as we start to wonder if we can put away our winter things yet, as 80-degree days make the snow feel like a memory, something shifts in us just as the seasons shift. The days grow longer, the air softens, life springs up in surprising places! Buds turn into leaves, tulips surprise and delight, and a robin begins to make a nest on the light above my…

- By Pastor Praveen Muthsuamy, Hills United Reformed ChurchApril 22, 2026We read in 2 Samuel 11:1-2, “In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to battle, David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel. And they ravaged the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem. It happened, late one afternoon, when David arose from his couch and was walking on the roof of the king’s house, that he saw from the roof a woman bathing; and…

- By Rev. Dr. Steven Voris, First Presbyterian Church, LuverneApril 15, 2026With a groan, Pastor Paul rolled over in bed, startled by the ringing of his cellphone. He groaned again when he saw the time was 5 a.m. With shaking hands, he picked up the call and did his best to sound wide awake. The voice on the other end of the line was chipper, “Yes, Pastor, this is Frieda Falter. You’ll never guess where I am.” With concern in his voice, Pastor Paul replied, “I hope…
