- By Rev. Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneFebruary 18, 2020In large earth-moving equipment, like dump trucks and loaders, there is often a magnet in the transmission. The purpose of this magnet is to catch the metal filings that wear off the gears in the transmission. If those little pieces of metal were to stay in the fluid, they would cause greater wear on the gears. The magnet helps keep the transmission fluid clean by drawing the “dirty metal filings…

- By Pastor Gary Klatt, St. John Lutheran Church, Luverne, MinnesotaFebruary 11, 2020Happy Valentine’s Day! May your day be filled with happiness and joy as you rejoice with all of the people that share your life. This goes far beyond romance and gifts of chocolates. St. John writes in his first epistle (4:7-11), “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God…

- By Maggie Berndt-Dreyer, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, HillsFebruary 04, 2020Traditions: those steadfast ways of doing things that you can always count on. Yet traditions evolve and build on one another throughout the years. Take, for example, Groundhog Day, which was this past Sunday, Feb. 2. Believe it or not, this rather silly ritual of using a groundhog in Pennsylvania to predict the weather actually has ties to an ancient feast day of the church, known in some…
- By Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, LuverneJanuary 28, 2020King David said, “Great is the LORD! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure his greatness.” (Psalm 145:3) King David also wrote, “Be still and know that I am God.” Do you ever stop and think about how great God is? The God described in the Bible as the one and only true God is far greater than words could ever describe. Yet the Bible does give us some great descriptions that…

- By Pastor Laura Phillips, Palisade Lutheran/First Lutheran Church, Valley SpringsJanuary 21, 2020“Be still and know that I am God! I am exalted among the nations, I am exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10 Have you been busy lately? While doing work with new Americans through Lutheran Social Services in Sioux Falls, I once heard the comment made that for many who are learning our English language, one of the first things they learn to say (because they feel that it is the “acceptable” thing…

- By Pastor Ann Zastrow, Grace Lutheran Church, LuverneJanuary 14, 2020Earlier this week I came across a two-panel cartoon. The first panel showed a pretty Christmas tree, filled with glowing lights and shiny ornaments, with a bright star on top. Next to the tree was a rotund snowman with sticks for arms, a smiling face out of coal or stones, complete with a carrot nose and winter hat. It was snowing lightly, and there was a character in a red Santa hat standing…

- By Pastor Jason Cunningham, First Presbyterian Church, LuverneJanuary 07, 2020Read Matthew 2:1-12 (The journey of the Magi/Wise Men) Welcome to 2020! A new year and even a new decade! When a new calendar year arrives, people get inspired to make (and try to keep) resolutions: to eat better, exercise more often or give up a vice or bad habit — be a better person in some way. One of the most influential figures in American church history, Jonathan Edwards, once penned a…

- By Pastor Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneDecember 22, 2019“We also have the completely reliable prophetic word. You do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the Morning Star rises in your hearts.” 2 Peter 1:19 The darkness of winter has set in. Have you felt it affecting you? In the north, you can expect fewer than nine hours of light each day this month. Southern states aren’t even that much better.…
