- By Pastor Nita Parker, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, HillsDecember 13, 2023This will seem like an unusual article for this time of the year, and my life will never be normal again, so please bear with me. I like to use Christian music to find my way these days. I usually find a piece of scripture and tie them together to try to make sense of what I am feeling. Since Dec. 21, 2021, nothing makes sense. That is the day that my son died. It was senseless to me, and yet I…

- By Pastor Josh Hayden, Living Rock Church, LuverneDecember 06, 2023You and I have seen the wars over the past year and their devastation. We may even have heard rumors of wars that “could happen” soon if things don’t change. If you are a follower of Jesus, you might be wondering, “Is this the end of the world?!” If you are not a follower of Jesus, the reason why Christians seem to go into a tizzy every time a war or catastrophic event happens is because of a…
- By Pastor Manda Steensma, Rock River Community Church, LuverneNovember 29, 2023Once a year in Luverne we have the citywide cleanup or “junk days.” All the residents can go through their homes and almost anything they consider junk, broken, tarnished or simply unwanted gets thrown to the curb, literally. Right on schedule, city employees go around town with their trucks and trailers to haul it away. Then after a week or so, all that junk is cleaned up and gone. It’s a…

- By Pastor Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneNovember 26, 2023As you might imagine, a national day of Thanksgiving wasn’t part of Martin Luther’s life. Thanksgiving Day is an American phenomenon. Although Americans were celebrating Thanksgiving Day on the fourth Thursday in November since the first presidential proclamation in 1863, it wasn’t “official” until congressional legislation in 1941 made Thanksgiving Day a national holiday. Martin Luther did…

- By Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, St. John Lutheran Church, LuverneNovember 15, 2023What does your church teach about the Bible? Do your pastors uphold all of Scripture as God’s true Word, or do they dismiss parts they find outdated or uncomfortable? Have you been told that certain passages no longer matter because the “times have changed?” Are your teachers more interested in aligning themselves with a particular political party and special interest groups than being faithful…

- By Pastor Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, LuverneNovember 08, 2023Since God knows everything (“God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything,” 1 John 3:20), why do we pray? Since God knows when a sparrow falls to the ground (Matthew 20:29-30), why do we need to tell God our needs? We believe God is sovereign, which means he is in complete control, so why do we pray? Daniel Brendsel in his book, “Answering Speech,” asks a question to answer the…

- By Pastor Joe Steenholdt, Christian Reformed Church, LuverneNovember 01, 2023Growing up, my parents taught me to fold my hands and close my eyes when I prayed. This posture was a good practice not to get distracted and remain focused. Yet, how does one follow the instruction from 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to “pray without ceasing” if you always have your eyes closed and hands folded? Then it is good to consider prayer as not only a separate quiet time — but as essential to…

- By Pastor Jeremy Wiersema, Reformed Church of SteenOctober 25, 2023“Test everything. Hold on to the good. Avoid every king of evil.” (I Thessalonians 5:21-22 NIV) I wish we all could trust everyone. When I was in second grade, I learned a really hard life lesson. I learned that not everybody in the world had my best interest at heart. It was the first day of school and our teacher asked us what was the best part of our summer vacation. I was excited to…
