Bethel Lutheran Church

How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts! My soul longs, indeed it faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God...Happy are those who live in your house, ever singing your praise. Psalm 84:1-2, 4

Simply the Sermon for January 14, 2024: The Calling of Bethel Lutheran Church

 This interim time for Bethel Lutheran is a good time to be asking ourselves, "What is God calling us to do over the next months and years?"  "How do we listen to the voice of God in directing our future?"  We have two readings to guide us...I Samuel 3:1-20, the wonderful story of God calling the young boy in the middle of the night; and John 1:43-51, Jesus calling his first disciples by the Sea of Galilee.
