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 December 29, 2024: "It Takes a Family"

Luke is the only one of the 4 Gospels to include a story from Jesus' childhood.  This insightful story from Luke 2:41-52 tells of the time when Mary and Joseph "lose" Jesus for a few days...but later find him in the temple in Jerusalem.  What can we learn about the meaning and purpose of family from this story?  Pastor Russ shares his thoughts in his sermon entitled:  "It Takes a Family".
