04 09 2025  Within a Few Months - Marker - Dream 24X Recap

What does it mean to live a radical lifestyle - where grace and love are acted out? The story of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10 is the inspiration for such a lifestyle. This might be a well-known story heard many times before, but we shouldn't lose sight of the challenge of Jesus’ words - "go and do the same". What does it mean for us to do the same as the Good Samaritan? What might it look like to act graciously and lovingly to those we might otherwise consider different from us? What does it mean to be a neighbour to everyone rather than those who are like us and think the same as us? That’s the challenge of grace and the boundless nature of love!

Ministering Grace and Love

In this sermon, based on Luke 10:1-11, 16-20, Pastor Scott explores the story of Jesus sending the 72 out in pairs to share the message about the kingdom of God. This is the assigned gospel text for Sunday July 6th, the 4th Sunday after Pentecost. 

Sermon: Joining In Jesus' Work 7-6-25

In this Sunday’s message, we reflect on Jesus’ words to the seventy-two He sent ahead of Him: “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.” In these simple but profound words, Jesus reminds us that the work of building His kingdom is like gathering a great harvest—a work that requires willing hands, faithful hearts, and trust in the One who sends us.

Jesus sends His followers out with little but His Word—no money, no bag, no sandals—yet He promises that their mission is filled with divine purpose. Though they go “as lambs among wolves,” they are not alone. He is with them, and He speaks through them. “He who listens to you listens to me,” Jesus says, affirming the sacred trust of sharing the Gospel.

The seventy-two returned with joy—not because of what they had, but because of what God had done through them. There is no greater joy than to know that God has used you in His harvest. We are reminded that the call to discipleship is not just about going, but about trusting that Jesus is already at work in the hearts of those we meet.

Sent to Harvest - Jul 6 - Fourth Sunday after Pentecost

In response to the question, “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus tells the parable of the Good Samaritan—a story that has challenged hearts for centuries. But His response is not merely a lesson in compassion. It’s a call to action: “Go and do likewise.”

Through this parable, Jesus redefines what it means to be a neighbor. It’s not about proximity or familiarity, but about mercy. The Samaritan—an outsider in the eyes of many—becomes the true neighbor because he acted in love, even when it cost him something. Jesus invites us into the same kind of faith-based initiative: caring for others with compassion, even when it’s inconvenient.

At St. James, we see the Good Samaritan story lived out in many small but powerful ways. Wherever mercy is extended and burdens are shared, the love of Christ is made visible. Jesus still speaks those words to us today: “You go, and do likewise.”

Go and Do Likewise - Jul 13 - Fifth Sunday after Pentecost

In the second of our Encounters With Jesus series, Michelle Zahner talks about Martha's relationship with Jesus and it's a lot more counterculture than it first appears.

Bible text: Luke 10: 38-42

Encounters With Jesus, Part Two: Martha

Children's choir programs are a unique and powerful ministry in our churches.  What a blessing to be able to explore and then share stories and songs of faith!  We pray that these stories and songs give students the opportunity to explore their talents, discover their confidence, and grow in their relationship with our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Shirley Baptist Church is a thriving, contemporary evangelical church, with an emphasis on Scripture, faith and mission, working out its purpose in the power of the Holy Spirit.

This podcast contains the weekly talks from Oasis Church Waterloo, from our ministers Nathan Jones and Rebekah Gibson, and the rest of the team.

St. James Lutheran Church was established in 1982. We are a church rooted on Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Scripture Alone. And we are a body of sinners and saints focused on spreading the Good News in the Greater Glen Carbon community.

St. James is located in Glen Carbon, IL at 146 North Main Street. We are located across from Glen Carbon Village Hall and right next to Schon Park.

I'm a pastor in Southwest Iowa, serving a congregation that is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). Each week, I explore an assigned Common Lectionary Text as I aim towards creating a sermon.
