The Heart of a Pastor

Ponderings, thoughts and insights from a Lutheran pastor in SW MN.

What you will find

“Why do I write?” I ask that question quite a lot of myself. After all, I am no Pulitzer Award winning writer. I am just a Lutheran pastor with something to say. But more importantly, I believe God has something to say through me. As Martin Luther would say, “If it were left up to me I would surely bring it all to ruin.” So that’s it…nothing fancy…just thoughts, ponderings and reflections all from the heart of a pastor and for the glory of God.

As a pastor I believe one of our “jobs” is to interpret the world through the lens of scripture.  Sometimes I see and hear things on TV that needs to be talked about.  Sometimes God kicks me in the butt and I feel moved to share my insights.  The Holy Spirit moves and acts in mysterious ways and I never get tired of being surprised.

You will find topics in this blog such as:
–Text study:  Thoughts on the up coming lectionary texts
–Observations from the world
–Commentary on current events from a Christian perspective
–Personal happenings in my life
–Reflections on Lutheran theology:  You can never go wrong with a good dose of Luther.
–Basically…ramblings from the heart of a Lutheran pastor on the prairie of SW MN.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your visit.
