David Otten: St. Michael and All Angels

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. Last Sunday Faith Lutheran celebrated the feast of St. Michael and All Angels. This is a joyous time to remember how God created not only the physical world but a spiritual world which we can't see unless God opens our eyes to it -- as in the case of Elisha's servant in 2 Kings 6:16, 17. There have been many false ideas about angels through the centuries and therefore I want to bring out the Biblical facts about them.

David Otten: The father-child relationship in prayer

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. For just shy of 2,000 years, Christians of all flavors have prayed the Lord's Prayer. Thomas O'Loughlin author of the book, "The Didache: A Window on the Earliest Christians," writes, "It is one of the few elements in Christians' worship today where one can get widespread agreement (more or less) about what to do or say: at the suggestion that a group recite the Lord's Prayer, most will both agree to the suggestion and be able to say it." (Page 76).

David Otten: Sanctify your time

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. Mary and Martha were two sisters who knew Jesus, and in Luke 10 we read that Jesus makes a call on them. Their reaction to Jesus is different. Mary wishes to listen to Jesus while Martha's older sister traits kick in and she begins to prepare a meal. Martha grows frustrated with the fact that she is doing all the work while Mary is just sitting there. Martha politely asks Jesus to have Mary help her, but Jesus tells her that she is too anxious about many things and Mary has chosen the "good portion" and it shall not be taken from her.

David Otten: Religion is part of our heritage of freedom

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. Our nation celebrates her birthday this week and the theme which will be heard the loudest is "freedom." America has in many ways become the standard that other nations and peoples have used to judge how freedom is understood and practiced in their own lands.
