Living for God depends on knowing him better. One of the more common names given to Jesus is the Light. If you want to live in the light, the key is greater focus on its source. This is the second sermon of a six-week series, Knowing –> Loving –> Living.
“The Light” (Matthew 4:12-23 sermon), was preached at Shepherd of the Hills Ev. Lutheran Church (WELS) on Sunday, January 26, 2020.
How you live depends on who you know. To know and care only about yourself is to live a life of selfishness – one which will be empty of real joy and purpose. If you want more than that for your life, get to know the One who can make it possible – the Lamb. This is the first sermon of a six-week series, Knowing –> Loving –> Living.

Though some may frown on the practice of re-gifting, there is an appropriate place for it. When it comes to God’s gift of grace, each of us can say along with Paul, “God has given it to me, for you.” Grace in Christ Jesus is for everyone, and it was revealed to us in part so that we can then make it known to others. So then, grace is meant to be re-gifted.
