    Bible Class: Lutheran Worship - May 17, 2026

    This introductory session on Lutheran Worship looks at some of the foundational ideas behind what it means to gather for "worship" with other believers. What drives the experience and expression of worship? What are it's priorities? What is it's object, place, way, and focus? This session begins the conversation that will continue over the summer of 2026.

  2. Share Christ’s Suffering

    Share Christ’s Suffering

    In 1 Peter 4:12-19 and 5:6-11, the apostle urges us to not be surprised by trials and suffering when they come our way as we follow Jesus. It might be surprising to a modern reader of Peter's letter in the United States how much Peter talks about suffering, but he also talks about the hope that we have in the face of suffering and the confidence we have because Jesus is risen from the dead.

    Suffering While Saved.m4a

    In this sermon, Pastor Tritten explores St. Peter's message in his first epistle, 1 Peter 3:13-22, where Peter asks who will harm us for doing good. Well, the devil and world often resist Christians when we try to do good. How then should we respond?

    Die and Live - A Confirmation Sermon

    This sermon is based on 1 Peter 2:19-25 where Peter urges Christians to endure suffering for Christ's sake. It was given on Confirmation Sunday when we ask our confirmands, "Do you intend to suffer all, even death, rather than turn away from this faith?" It's a hard word, but an important one, as we entrust ourselves into God's loving hands as we live our lives following Jesus' example trusting in His grace.

    A New Identity

    This sermon is based on 1 Peter 2:2-10. Pastor Tritten points out that we often look to exterior and interior sources to help us to understand our identity, but both fall short. Only Jesus can create our identity internally and externally. He changes who we are to become people of the kingdom of heaven.

    Ransomed

    This sermon for the 3rd Sunday of Easter, is part of a series on 1 Peter. Focused on 1 Peter 1:17-25, where Peter speaks of God having ransomed us, Pastor Tritten focuses on four prepositions to say we have been ransomed from, with, for, and by. Each preposition reveals another aspect of God's salvation in regard to having been ransomed.

    Born Again

    This sermon, based on 1 Peter 1:3-9, reminds us that we are born again in Jesus’ resurrection. This new life changes your relationship with the world as you live in repentance and nourish your soul in God’s grace.

  8. First Importance - Easter

    7 AVR.

    First Importance - Easter

    In 1 Corinthians 15, St. Paul tells us that he delivered the message of Jesus' death and resurrection as of "first importance." Pastor Tritten compared that statement to the lede (lead) in a newspaper article and urged the congregation to not bury the lede. However, the world, represented by four deities, resists the work of Jesus' resurrection-powered kingdom. Those deities are Santa Muerte (Death), Moloch (Politics), Eros (Desire/Love), and Mammon (Earthly Possessions). Jesus overcomes all of them and gives us life, mercy, love, and grace.
