Joyfully committed to giving thanks

The Lord of all serves the church

Jesus is Lord over everything, including the church. This is good news for the church. He is over the church and He is in the church. He is present when people gather around His Word to worship Him. He wants such a close connection with His followers that He calls the church His body. This is Sunday, Jan. 12, 2025 sermon from Triumph Lutheran Church, Ferndale, Washington by Craig Johnson. Sermon text is Ephesians 1:22-23.

Thankful even in the ruins

Even when we're living in what feels like the ruins, we can give thanks. Jesus is willing to come to the ruins. Even though we have sinned and made a mess of things, He graciously comes. He can restore hope and joy. This is the Nov. 24, 2024 sermon from Triumph Lutheran Church, Ferndale, Washington by Craig Johnson. Text is Jeremiah 30:18-22.

Look and give thanks

The Bible invites us to look at what God has done, what He promises to do and what He can do in us. As we look at those things we see God's faithfulness, His goodness and His great compassion. A vision like that leads to thanksgiving. This is the Nov. 17, 2024 sermon from Triumph Lutheran Church, Ferndale, Washington by Craig Johnson. Text is Isaiah 51:1-3.

Joyfully committed to giving thanks

Giving thanks is something worth taking time to do. God's goodness is deserving of a joyful celebration.

Waiting by faith
