- By Rev. Dr. Steven Voris, First Presbyterian Church, LuverneAugust 07, 2024The modern rejuvenation of the Olympic Games happened in 1896 in Athens, Greece, as 14 nations brought their best athletes to compete in sporting events and to strengthen ties between peoples. Through the years, the Olympic ideals have been honed to this taken from the Olympics website, “The three values of Olympism are excellence, respect, and friendship. They constitute the foundation on which…
- By Pastor Mike Geiger, Crosspoint Church, Georgetown, TXJuly 31, 2024Life can be difficult and wear us out. Perhaps unlike any other stretch, all the turmoil in the world is taking a toll on us, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. The uncertainty, the unrest in our country and the divisiveness of elections challenge even the strongest. We look for an escape … or at least a reprieve. Something to refresh our soul, to clear our mind, and give…

- By Pastor Joe Steenholdt, Christian Reformed Church, LuverneJuly 24, 2024Do you wanna give it a try?” Scott asked as I was eyeing his ’78 Goldwing motorcycle one summer afternoon in the early 2000s. I had a minibike as a kid and knew how to ride a bicycle, but jumping on a full-size motorcycle seemed a little intimidating. I ended up taking him up on the offer and taking the bike for a spin up and down the road. Scott, who would become my father-in-law, had been…

- By Pastor Jeremy Wiersema, Reformed Church of SteenJuly 17, 2024Wishes are something I find fascinating. They have found a place in the life of every person I have ever met. It seems we all wish for something. Over time our wishes might change, but sometimes they stay the same. Wishes are something I learned about early in my life. As a young boy I vividly remember being told to make a wish before I blew out the candles on my birthday cake. I don’t…

- By Pastor Mike Geiger, Crosspoint Church (WELS) Georgetown, TXJuly 10, 2024“Can you believe it?” We often say this when we see or witness something that is seemingly beyond the normal. We might believe it because we witnessed it, but the person to whom we relate the event is a bit skeptical. We might even qualify our reaction to the event with the phrase, “I wouldn’t have believed it unless I saw it!” Stories that fit the unbelievable category might be an account of…
- By Pastor Josh Hayden, Living Rock Church, LuverneJuly 03, 2024The other week I was able to spend a couple days working with Rock the Edge during their mission week here in Rock County. It is an incredible week with students and adults from different churches in Rock County serving their community through different projects. Decks were built, buildings were painted, and over 20 beds were made for people in need of one. On Wednesday I was privileged to help…

- By Pastor Bob Junak, Rock River Community Church, LuverneJune 26, 2024Who likes it when a great evening turns not so great, when a situation arises that places a negative spin on what was a positive experience? Not me! Unfortunately, this happened to Jesus too many times. The following are just two examples from scripture. Luke 5:17-19, 21:17: “One day while Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and teachers of religious law were sitting nearby. (It seemed that…

- By Pastor Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneJune 19, 2024I suppose you might call it faith if you believe in the sun, even on a cloudy day. We probably all have that kind of faith. There are places where it might cloud over for weeks at a time. It’s easy to get discouraged by the gray sky. Yet, even in cloudy weather we know the sun is still up there. It’s still providing heat and light. It’s still making life possible. What happens if our life…

- By Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, St. John Lutheran Church, LuverneJune 12, 2024Family is one of God's first and greatest gifts. From the beginning, God created the family as the foundation of human society. He gave us husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, and brothers and sisters. In the family we find love, support and a sense of belonging. It is within the family that we first experience unconditional love and learn to love others in return. The family is a…
