Article 7

Pentecost was a day of miracles, including the miracle of understanding given to peopel who spoke many different languages but understood the proclamation of the Apostles. It was the opposite of the language confusion that took place at the Tower of Babel and it was the beginning of a great sending of the church to every tribe, nation and tounge.  In addition to the Pentecost sermon from Bethany Lutheran, there is a song performed by C2W (Created 2 Worship) at the end of the episode.

Before a rocket launch, there is a great deal of preparation and just before there is a series of final systems checks. In this sermon from Bethany Lutheran's Ascension Sunday, I am connecting that image with the Apostles who waited for the coming of the Holy Spirit. This episode also features special music from Linda and Lindsay Hemphill.

In the introduction, I have some news about worship at Bethany for the summer of 2021 followed by a few Daniel facts.

After 31 chapters we get to the end of "The Story" which is not really the end because there is so much that we are living now, and even more that is not yet. I explain a bit more in this final sermon in the series. In addition, there is a special Mother's Day musical offering at the end by mother/daughter duo, Linda and Lindsay Hemphill.

Article 7

It was said of the Apostles that "they never stopped" and that was the focus of my sermon one year ago when we were dealing with how we were going to be a church during a pandemic. As we continue to deal with Covid-19, today, I pray our attitude is the same as I expressed one year ago and people say of us that we "never stopped"!

One year ago, I was wondering what would become of Easter during quarantine! As I continue to collect the remaining sermons of "The Story" for this podcast, I reflect a little on how things have changed over this past year. The sermon from Easter Sunday latches onto two phrases in the Gospel of Matthew and "The Story" chapter 27. Finally, listen to an instrumental of "The Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's "Messiah" performed by the organ and trumpet.
