Study & Share Sermon Blog

This is Pastor Jared's weekly sermon info and his weekly Study and Share devotional Bible study. Unless otherwise noted all sermons and studies are copyright Jared Stillions 2020-2023. The devotional Bible studies may be reproduced & shared for personal, non-sale use, provided this copyright notice is included. The studies are formatted two to a page to make sharing it easier. Weekly posts go live at 9:00 AM on Sundays. 

You can find his sermon podcast on the sermon-cast page. Check back each Sunday for new content. The podcast will soon be listed with major services. 
Why not put them on the same page? Due to limitations of our website builder.

By the way, here's the Lutheran Confessions, The Book of Concord, online and in the public domain. These writings, including Luther's Small & Large Catechisms are frequently referenced in these devotional studies. The Confessions are the historic doctrinal standard of the Lutheran Church and a faithful exposition of the Bible. You could say they are squared, leveled, and plumb by and to the Bible itself.

"Test of Trust" St. Peter tries to move backward through faith (from allegiance to knowledge to trust) & then he fails, sinking like a rock.

Festival of St. John the Baptizer's Nativity

Sunday's Sermon
"You Have to Make a Name for Yourself"
A name can be a shortcut to evaluate quality. Exploring deceptions men face as they make a name for themselves in everyday life.

Today is also our Name Brand Sunday, reaching out to the men. They've all been invited to wear their favorite name brand logo, even if it's on a t-shirt or a hat. I'm in my Columbia PFG shirt. A $15 Academy gift card prize was given at each service to the guy with the biggest logo and aTwo $10 Academy gift card door prize drawings will be held from both services.
