June 04, 2023. Divine Service. 8 A.M.

At times it seems as though the Church seems a bit out of step with the rest of the world and sometimes just a bit weird. In fact, we are rapidly moving to a time when many even hate the Christian Church. Having a Sunday to contemplate the mystery of the Holy Trinity seems to be a bit disconnected with our culture. But maybe exactly what we need to ponder the holy mystery of the Holy Trinity. The truth is the world and the culture do not set the agenda for the Church. Or at least, they shouldn’t. But we also don’t want to be tone deaf to what is happening in the world and ignore it. The Church shouldn’t fiddle around with adopting the world’s agenda. We must respond to what is going on, but not based on how we feel about it, or how the world feels about it, or how they want us to feel about it, but on the basis of the truth of what God has said in His holy Word. That is what we as the Church have to say to the world. That is what we must say if we as the Church are being true to who we are. “To the world it is inexplicable that the church lives on, always preaching the same old thing. In fact, it is because the same old thing goes on being preached, the apostle’s doctrine, that the church goes on living. Because the apostle’s doctrine is the everlasting Word of God to all people, to all nations, to all times. This is what we must teach and preach.” (Herman Sasse) ----- Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting.
