A profligate father, two greedy sons, an unmentioned community, one preacher, and a sacramental fatted calf comprise this parable's cast. The world with all its prodigal younger sons; the world with all its begrudging elder sons; the world with all its skeptical and necessarily protective communities will be reconciled to the Father by the sacrifice of Christ. Delivered at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, El Paso, TX on Sunday, March 14th, 2010 by the Reverend Timothy J. Swenson.

The Truth about Yourself and God
A sermon preached on the occasion of Arnold Anderson's funeral at Wilmington Lutheran Church in Arnegard, North Dakota by the Reverend Timothy J. Swenson. Confrontation with God through the rebuking rod of God's Law and through the gathering staff of God's Gospel is like "wrestling with angels" and reveals the truth about us as sinners and about God as one who redeems sinners. Genesis 32:24-31 Psalm 23 Hebrews 11:20-21 John 4:1-29
