The Forgiven Life

Logo for 2024 Lutheran Women in Mission Sunday

We pray to Him who sent St. Michael into battle, and who also sends us.

Sermon for the 17th Wednesday after Trinity

And so, our dilemma is that we are unworthy——-and yet are bidden – even ordered – to be
here at the “wedding feast,” at the banquet over which One who is greater than Solomon
presides.
