Trinity Lutheran Sheboygan

Sermon: Godly or Ungodly Traditions? | Mark 7:1-13 | Traditions and Commandments

A tradition is the transmission of customs or beliefs from one generation to the next. The true tradition of the church is the Gospel and all proper practices or traditions in the church teach the Gospel. For example, I was never officially taught to sing hymns as a young child. 
This was a tradition passed along to me. I just watched my parents and brothers open their hymnals and sing, and I followed their lead. I distinctly remember reflecting on this in church one Sunday as a little boy. I can even tell you which pew I was sitting in at Our Savior Lutheran Church. I remember thinking that this was the only place at that point in my life where I sang anything. The hymns that I sang taught me the Word of God as they confessed the readings and sermon of that day. 
Traditions such as singing hymns that confess the word of God are godly traditions since they focus on what Jesus has done and continues to do for the life of the world, for the life of you and me.-----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. Trinity is located in downtown Sheboygan, only one block from the Mead Public Library and the Weill Center for the Performing Arts. We invite you to visit us in person!

Sermon: Sing with the Spirit | Ephesians 5:6-21 | Walk in Love

St. Paul exhorts us to not be deceived by the empty words and things of the world but be filled with the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit sings! Learn how singing is a part of who we are as the children of God, and why all theology finds its true home in praise to God and love for one another.-----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.

Sermon: The Bread that Gives Eternal Life | John 6:35–51 | I Am the Bread of Life

Jesus says, “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever.” This is indeed good news! Imagine if that news got out into our community. We have a bread here in this place that brings eternal life, a cure for death, a bread that has the power to raise you to life from death. 
Well, the demand would be overwhelming. The crowds here at Trinity Lutheran Church would rival the crowds at major sporting events. People would be lining up for this bread for miles - trying to break down our doors to get it. People would be bringing their children and friends from miles to get this living bread from heaven. This is exactly what happens each Lord’s Day here in this place. 
Jesus gives us His very body and blood in, with and under bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins life and salvation! What else can we do but sing, “Thank the Lord and sing His praise tell everyone what He has done!”-----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.

Sermon: The Bread of God is Jesus | John 6:22-35 | I Am the Bread of Life

It is estimated that there are more than one hundred different types of bread made in this world of ours. It’s why it is fascinating to learn today that there is only one bread of heaven, one bread that sustains our life with God and each other. One bread that delivers the benefits of the work of God. One bread “that gives life to the world.” Jesus said, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.”-----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.
