Often when I have couples pick out their Bible readings for their wedding service, they choose Genesis 2:22-25 . .  . 22And the rib that the Lord GOD had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. 23Then the man said,  "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called Woman, for out of Man this one was taken."24Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh. 25And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed....

Wednesday Wanderings

Read the latest from Pastor Brad's blog, Wednesday Wanderings.
A little journey through this topsy-turvy journey of joys and sorrows and hopes and dreams with plenty of grace from God along the way.

November 22, 2023

Published  Wednesday, November 22, 2023 Pastor Brad Ross 25
I honestly cannot tell you where or when I first heard this hymn, but it has stuck with me for several years now. I chose it as the first one to be played and sung as people came up to receive Communion during my ordination: “Thine the Amen” (ELW 826). I wasn’t overly comfortable getting so much attention that day. It turned out to be rather draining, quite honestly. Ministry as a whole, not just with pastors, but for all of us, can have that tiring effect. That isn’t to say some of us have our moments of appreciating being recognized for what we’ve done in the sacrifice department (some of us pastors have our rather egotistical moments, too).

Divinity Warmline

The Warmline is a recorded daily message to help us cope with life. We don’t always need a “hotline” geared for crisis and traumatic moments. But we all need a "warmline” somewhere to help us get in touch with ourselves, the church, and God. Goethe said, “One should, each day, try to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it is possible, speak a few reasonable words.” The Warmline helps us do just that! Each day’s offering includes an opening greeting, a devotional, poem, or scripture reading, Divinity prayer concerns, Divinity birthdays and anniversaries, and a closing prayer.
