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 August 25, 2024: "Be Strong in the Lord"

"Be Strong in the Lord" is the title of Pastor Russ' message, taken from the reading from Ephesians 6:10-20 where St. Paul compares the Christian stance to the uniform a typical Roman soldier would wear.  We do battle too, St. Paul reminds us, with powers and principalities, with evil and darkness.  And we combat these with respect, honor, kindness and love.
