- By Rev. Elizabeth A. Eaton, Presiding Bishop, Evangelical Lutheran Church in AmericaOctober 18, 2023Dear church, As Lutherans we are accustomed to holding tension between two truths. Thus, the ELCA denounces the egregious acts of Hamas, acts that have led to unspeakable loss of life and hope. At the same time the ELCA denounces the indiscriminate retaliation of Israel against the Palestinian people, both Christian and Muslim. For the past week we have borne witness to the horrors of the…

- By Pastor Josh Hayden, Living Rock Church, LuverneOctober 11, 2023(Editor's Note: Due to space limitations in the Sept. 12, 2023, Rock County Star Herald, Pastor Hayden's column was shortened. This on-line version is the column at the original length.) The Church is a hospital! How so? It is a saying that many people know and even proclaim: the Church is a hospital! It is a place for broken, hurt and lost people to come. It is not a museum for those who…

- By Pastor Bob Junak, Rock River Community Church, LuverneOctober 04, 2023My son loves motorcycles. He buys one and customizes it to fit his style. He rides it for a while, then decides he wants a better one. So, he purchases another, modifies it, rides it and sells it for a nicer and better one. He’s never satisfied with what he had or what he has. Well, until he had a couple of kids. Then his priority changed. It seems like so many of us think the same way. We are…

- By Pastor Andrew Palmquist, Bethany Lutheran Church, LuverneSeptember 27, 2023Back when I was a student in grade school, there were some kids who truly disliked our math teacher. Why? There was only one answer he would accept for our papers and tests. It had to be “the right one.” It didn’t matter who you were. It didn’t matter how hard you worked, or how much time you spent. It didn’t matter how close you got. Anything but the right answer was just wrong. Talk about “…

- By Pastor Walt Moser, First Baptist Church, LuverneSeptember 13, 2023Have you seen church signs saying, “Everyone Welcome Here!” Do they really mean that? A teacher friend recently posted a picture of himself standing by a whiteboard welcoming his new class. Written on the white board was, “It’s okay to not know everything,” “It's okay to ask questions,” and a few more “It’s okay” statements. Then, at the bottom of the white board, it said, “Everyone is welcome…

- By Pastor Joe Steenholdt, Christian Reformed Church, LuverneSeptember 06, 2023‘Tis the season for back-to-school shopping, checking off supply lists, implementing lesson plans, and adjusting to new classes and schedules. Yet there is one thing you won’t find on the back-to-school checklist, but it is one of the most profound things you can do no matter what your connection to the school is this year – pray. Here are some suggestions with the help of Scripture to pray for…

- By Pastor Jeremy Wiersema, Reformed Church of SteenSeptember 01, 2023To the brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ our Lord: May the peace of Christ be in you and with you always. I am writing you today because there is a problem. We are all being lied to. Our culture, the powers that be, the rulers and authorities in this land have been working for decades to silence us. They have told us that we must keep our faith to ourselves. That it is not welcome in the…

- By Pastor Nita Parker, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, HillsAugust 22, 2023What does it mean to be a member of a congregation? It means something different to each person. The legal definition, if there really is a legal definition, is a person who participates in Holy Communion one time per year and gives $1 of record. That is it. Sadly, every congregation has a number of people on the roles of the church who do not even do that. What does it really mean to be a member…
