I was happy with my sermon at Faith Lutheran yesterday. I preached on the Gospel reading, as I always do. Yesterday we finally got to a text which feels like a more traditional Advent reading, Matthew 1: 18-25. Finally we get to a character central to the Nativity stories (Mary and Joseph), not the early ministry of Christ stories (John the Baptist).
Here's what I posted on Facebook: "If you are feeling a bit like Joseph, feeling like you had solid plans that have dissolved into a huge mess, perhaps my sermon that I preached this morning at Faith Lutheran Church (in Bristol, TN) would have meaning for you."
You can find the recording of my sermon here on my YouTube channel. You can read along here and count the times I go off-script.
