  • By: Pastor Schultz a Recent Poll in the La Crosse Tribune Reported That the Season of Fall Is the Favorite Season for Most People
    Issue 2: November 2008 Editor: Alicia Gartner By: Pastor Schultz A recent poll in the La Crosse Tribune reported that the season of fall is the favorite season for most people. I am one of them. Many of the things I enjoy most are in the fall, such as hunting, football, cool weather, and good fishing. Fall is also the time of year that we are reminded of the Lord’s abundant goodness as we see fields being harvested, and as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving. It is fitting that we pause to give thanks to the Lord, not only during this time of Thanksgiving, but each day as we live under the grace of our God. It is during this time of year that we are often encouraged to “count our blessings” and remember all we have to be thankful for. That sounds easy enough, but is quite that simple? As we are reminded that we are living in an economy filled with more questions than answers, in a world where there is far more instability than stability, and as we struggle in getting along with people that we thought were our friends, we might wonder, “What do I have to be thankful about!?!” Sometimes the blessings just aren’t always so obvious. Yet, we still give thanks. Consider what the prophet Habakkuk says, in chapter 3:17- 18... 17 Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, 18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior.

  • A Kingdom Greater Than Any
    Issue 4: May 2009 Editor: Jessie Cross A Kingdom Greater Than Any Nearly 1500 years have gone by since the Western Roman Empire fell into ruin, and yet it is still re- membered as one of the greatest kingdoms in this world’s history. Yet even this mighty empire that conquered the ancient world was helpless to stand against the One who confessed before the Roman governor Pontius Pilate: My kingdom is not of this world… but now my kingdom is from another place (John 18:36). For the sol- diers guarding the garden tomb outside of Jerusalem could do nothing but quiver in fear as the earth shook and the angel of the Lord rolled back the stone to show the world that Christ had risen and therefore had secured by his death and resurrection an eternal kingdom for his people (Matthew 28:1-11)! Yes, empires and kingdoms rise and fall, but the Word of our God stands forever (Isaiah 40:8). What is this kingdom? We live a short distance from a border that separates Minnesota and Wiscon- sin: the Mississippi River. I can look on a map and see that the “Kingdom” of France has rivers, hills and cities. But where will I find this Kingdom we pray about in the second petition? Jesus answered a similar question this way: The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, „Here it is‟ or „There it is,‟ because the kingdom of God is within you (Luke 17:20-21). To Pilate, Jesus said: I am a king… I came into this world to testify to the truth.
