Bible Class

March 13, 2022 • Pastor Ben Schrank • Mark 2:23–27

The Sabbath was a day to give up work so people could take up rest. Sadly, the religious leaders turned the gift of rest into a burden. Jesus invites His followers to experience the Sabbath as a gift rather than a requirement.

Secrecy

April 3, 2022 • Pastor Paul Horstmeyer • Matthew 6:1–6

So often, we conceal the things we should reveal – like our sin in confession – and reveal the things we should conceal – like our righteous acts. Jesus invites us to give up boasting and do our best work in secret. These are the works that God honors.

Confession

March 27, 2022 • Pastor Paul Horstmeyer • Luke 18:9–14

It can be difficult to confess sin because it requires you to give up your pride. The Pharisee in Jesus’ parable is proud, but it is the tax collector who confesses his sin who finds mercy.

Service

March 20, 2022 • Pastor Paul Horstmeyer • John 13:1–17

As we celebrate service at Concordia, we remember that Jesus came to serve us. Jesus gave up His rights and privileges to be served and instead took up a towel to serve us. He invites us to do the same for others.
