- By Pastor Jason Cunningham, First Presbyterian Church, LuverneDecember 08, 2020We’re journeying through December toward Christmas, so I invite you to consider some of those who journeyed to see the newborn king. Those shepherds in the wide open fields were the first to receive the message of God’s great action of grace. Their lives were repetitive, perhaps even monotonous. Most every day looked the same. And then they received news that changed their lives … and the world!…

- By Pastor Roger Sparks, Luverne Christian Reformed ChurchDecember 01, 2020In some congregations candles are lit on each of the four Sundays leading up to Christmas. We call those four Sundays the season of advent because we prepare to celebrate anew the advent (coming) of the Son of God when He was born to live among us and to do a great work of salvation. The birth of Jesus was and still is good news! When we look at world history and current events, it is obvious…

- By Rev. Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneNovember 23, 2020As Thanksgiving approaches and especially on the Day, individuals and families often reflect on what they have to be thankful for over the past year. Many families have had significant events taking place. A young (or older!) couple getting married. A little baby is born. A new addition to the family. Graduations. Wedding anniversaries. A special milestone birthday celebration. There are so many…

- By DCE Jessica Blocker, St. John Lutheran Church, LuverneNovember 17, 2020In October we took a “Sheracation,” the first-ever trip where our dog, Shera, was able to come with us. I’ve heard some people express that they love seeing places and experiences through their children’s eyes – but have you ever thought about seeing things through a pet’s? Traveling with Shera was a great reminder to be thankful for simple things, which I continue to reflect on as we are in the…

- By Pastor Gary Mikkelson, interim pastor at Bethlehem Lutheran Church, HillsNovember 10, 2020The gem that I would like to begin with for this article is found in Philippians 2:3-4: “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.” Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. In the verses preceding, the apostle Paul has…

- By Pastor Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, LuverneNovember 03, 2020Is God in control of the election? If you are a Trump supporter and Biden is elected, you may wonder how did God allow this to happen. If you are a Biden supporter and Trump was reelected, you may wonder as well how did God allow this to happen. I am writing this column prior to the election, so I don’t know the outcome and I am not sure even at the time you are reading this if the country will…

- By Pastor Laura Phillips, Palisade Lutheran/First Lutheran Church, Valley SpringsOctober 27, 2020“Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, ‘If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.’” John 8:31-32 There is much talk about freedom recently. We consider it a freedom to wear a mask or not, and in the upcoming election we are free to vote for the candidates that best suit our interests. Jesus here lays out a…

- By Pastor Ron Nichols, Grace Lutheran Church, LuverneOctober 20, 2020As the people of God came into the land that God had promised, God first instructed them to bring to the holy place a first fruits offering. A portion of what God had first given them was to be shared with the Levites (Priests), foreigners, orphans, and widows. As God had blessed them, they were to bless others. (Deuteronomy 26ff) God also commanded the people to “celebrate with all the bounty…
